Format

Participation

The Egypt Cup began with a round of 32 teams. The 18 teams of the Egyptian Premier League, along with the 14 winning teams qualified from the Fifth Preliminary Round of the 2019–20 Egypt Cup qualifying rounds.

Draw

The draw for the main competition was held at the Egyptian Football Association headquarters in Gezira, Cairo on 24 November 2019 and was broadcast live on ON Sport.[4]

The 32 participating teams were separated into 3 pots. Pot 1 included the 15th placed team from the previous season of the Egyptian Premier League alongside the 3 promoted teams from the 2018–19 Egyptian Second Division, Pot 2 included the top 14 teams from the previous season of the Egyptian Premier League, and Pot 3 included all 14 teams who qualified to the competition through the qualifying rounds.

Teams from Pot 1 were drawn against each other, while teams from Pot 2 were drawn against teams from Pot 3.

Similar to previous season, the Egypt Cup defending champions, Zamalek, and the Egyptian Premier League champions, Al Ahly, were placed in different paths; meaning that both teams can face each other only in the final.

Match rules

Teams meet in one game per round. Matches take place for 90 minutes, with two-halves of 45 minutes. If still tied after regulation, 30 minutes of extra time will be played, consisting of two periods of 15 minutes. If the score is still level after this, the match will be decided by a penalty shoot-out. A coin toss will decide who takes the first penalty. A total of seven players are allowed to be listed on the substitute bench, with up to three substitutions being allowed during regulation.

All matches will be played on venues selected by the Egyptian Football Association except in the Round of 32, where matches will be hosted by the team drawn first.

Champion qualification

The winners of the Egypt Cup will earn automatic qualification for the 2020–21 CAF Confederation Cup. If they have already qualified for the CAF Confederation Cup or CAF Champions League through their position in the Egyptian Premier League, then the spot will go to the cup runners-up. If the cup runners-up also qualified for an African competition through their league position, then the spot will be given to the fourth placed team in the league.
