The 2020 Campeonato Pernambucano da Série A1 (officially the Campeonato Pernambucano estadium.bet 2020 for sponsorship reasons)[1] was the 106th edition of the state championship of Pernambuco organized by FPF. The championship began on 18 January and ended on 5 August.
On 14 March 2020, FPF announced that all the matches of Campeonato Pernambucano would be played behind closed doors to prevent the spread of the coronavirus COVID-19.[2] Consequently, the match Santa Cruz v Decisão played on 15 March 2020 was played behind closed doors. On 16 March 2020, FPF announced the suspension of the tournament.[3] Complying with the guidelines of the Governo do Estado de Pernambuco, the tournament resumed behind closed doors on 19 July 2020.[4]
Sport were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the first stage.
The finals were contested in two-legged home-and-away format between Salgueiro and Santa Cruz. Tied 1–1 on aggregate, Salgueiro won 4–3 on penalties, winning the tournament for the first time in their history. As champions, Salgueiro qualified for the 2021 Copa do Brasil and 2021 Copa do Nordeste.[5]
Santa Cruz and Retrô qualified for 2021 Copa do Brasil as runners-up and best placed team in the first stage not already qualified, respectively.
Sport (best team in the 2020 RNC) qualified for the 2021 Copa do Nordeste. Santa Cruz qualified for the 2021 Pré-Copa do Nordeste via RNC.
Ten teams were competing, eight returning from the 2019 and two promoted from the 2019 Pernambucano A2 Championship: Decisão and Retrô.[6]
- a Decisão originally played their home matches at Lacerdão instead of their regular stadium Arthur Tavares de Melo, Bonito.[8] However, they played their home match against Retrô (Feb. 20) at Arena Pernambuco.[9]
- b After the suspension of the tournament due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Decisão moved their home matches from Lacerdão to stadium Antônio Inácio de Souza.[10]
