The 2019–20 Israeli Premier League, also known as Ligat Tel Aviv Stock Exchange[2] for sponsorship reasons, was the 21st season since its introduction in 1999 and the 78th season of top-tier football in Israel. The season began in August 2019 and concluded in July 2020 after a suspension of 75 days due to the coronavirus pandemic.[3]

Teams

A total of fourteen teams were competing in the league, including twelve sides from the 2018–19 season and two promoted teams from the 2018–19 Liga Leumit.

Bnei Sakhnin and Maccabi Petah Tikva were relegated to the 2019–20 Liga Leumit after finishing the 2018–19 Israeli Premier League in the bottom two places.

Sektzia Ness Ziona were promoted as the winners of the 2018–19 Liga Leumit. This marked the return of Ness Ziona to the top division after 51 years of absence.

Hapoel Kfar Saba were promoted as the Runner-ups of the 2018–19 Liga Leumit. This ends the team's three years absence from the top division.
