The season kicked off on 27 July 2019 along with the First League. Both groups A and B completed their double round-robin tournament on 23 November 2019 before going on winter break. Following the break the spring half of the season that should have started on 21 March 2020 and featured another single round-robin tournament ending on 23 May 2020. On 17 March 2020, the Ukrainian Association of Football adopted its decision to pause all football competitions in the country since 18 March 2020 for unspecified period of time (until adaptation of its next decision to resume all football events) due to the coronavirus pandemic.[2]
On 21 May 2020, the PFL council of leagues at its open-air session at Obolon Arena adopted decision by vote of majority of the Second League clubs to cancel the spring half of the season and recognize winter break standings as final.[3] Also, since the season's calendar was cut short, there were made some additional amendments including rotation of clubs between leagues.[4]
After several PFL meetings, the UAF Executive Committee finally approved completion of the season by decisions of those meetings on 12 June 2020.[5][6][7][8]
The post season games took place in the second half of August, yet beside the championship final (between winners of groups A and B).

- None – PFC Sumy placed 14th place of the 2018–19 Ukrainian First League but had its professional status taken away almost at the end of the season.

On 10 October 2019 the UAF Appellation Committee canceled previous decision of the UAF CDC and sent the case for new investigation. According to chief editor of "Futbol" Artem Frankov, accusations of Francesco Baranca were groundless.[11]
