2020 CAF Confederation Cup final

The 2020 CAF Confederation Cup final was the final of the 2019–20 CAF Confederation Cup, the 17th edition of Africa's secondary club football tournament organized by the Confederation of African Football (CAF), under the current CAF Confederation Cup title after the merger of CAF Cup and African Cup Winners' Cup.

For the first time, the final was played as a single match at a venue pre-selected by CAF. It was originally scheduled to be played on 24 May 2020 at the Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium in Rabat, Morocco. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the match was postponed and was played on 25 October 2020, as part of a Final Four format played as single matches in Morocco.

RS Berkane defeated Pyramids and won 1–0, earning themselves their first ever CAF Confederation Cup and African trophy. They also earned the right to play against the 2019–20 CAF Champions League winners in the 2020–21 CAF Super Cup.

The CAF Executive Committee decided in June 2019 that the final would be played as a single match. One member association submitted bids during the period of 11–20 February 2020:

The CAF Emergency Committee made the final decision on 12 March 2020, and Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium, Rabat was officially announced as the final venue on 16 March 2020.

On 18 April 2020, the CAF announced that the final had been postponed until further notice due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

On 3 August 2020, the CAF announced that the final would be played on 27 September 2020.

On 10 September 2020, the CAF announced that at the request of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, the final was rescheduled to 25 October 2020.
