2019–20 Valencia CF season

The 2019–20 Valencia Club de Fútbol season was the club's 100th in the club's history and their 85th in La Liga. The club had qualified for the UEFA Champions League for the second season in a row, entering in the group stage. Valencia failed to defend the Copa del Rey that they won the previous season, losing to Granada in the quarter-finals after entering at the round of 32. As a result of the Copa del Rey win, Valencia competed in the Spanish Super Cup for the first time since 2008.
