It was announced that the league would resume on 4 August 2020 and end on 9 September 2020.[7]

On 29 August 2020, Al-Hilal won the league for a record 16th time with two matches remaining, after defeating Al-Hazem 4–1.[8] Al-Adalah were the first team to be relegated following a 1–1 home draw with Al-Raed on 29 August 2020.[9] On 4 September 2020, Al-Hazem were relegated following a 1–0 defeat away to Al-Shabab.[10] Al-Fayha were the third and final team to be relegated following a 1–0 defeat away to Al-Taawoun in the final matchday.[11]

Positions by round

edit

The following table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve the chronological evolution, any postponed matches are not included to the round at which they were originally scheduled but added to the full round they were played immediately afterward. If a club from the Saudi Professional League wins the King Cup, they will qualify for the AFC Champions League, unless they have already qualified for it through their league position. In this case, an additional AFC Champions League group stage berth will be given to the 3rd placed team, and the AFC Champions League play-off round spot will be given to 4th.
