Rules for classification: 1) Points per game; 2) Goal difference; 3) Number of goals scored; 4) Head-to-head results; 5) Wins; 6) Away goals; 7) Penalty points (sec 9.5); 8) 12-point sending off offences[13]

Notes:
  1. ^ As a result of Bury's expulsion from League One, only one team is relegated to maintain League Two at 24 teams.[6]
  2. ^ Macclesfield Town deducted four points for failing to both pay their players' wages and to fulfil a fixture, reduced from six points after appeal.[7][8] A further seven-point deduction was given for failing to play December's match against Plymouth Argyle.[9] A further two-point deduction was given for breaches of regulations over non-payment of wages.[10] On 3 July the EFL appealed against the independent disciplinary panel's sanctions on Macclesfield.[11] A further four points were deducted on 11 August 2020, resulting in Macclesfield Town being relegated. Stevenage reprieved[12]
