The 2020 Faroe Islands Premier League (referred to as Betri deildin menn for sponsorship reasons) was the 78th season of top-tier football in the Faroe Islands, and the 16th under the current format.
KÍ were the defending champions, having won their 18th Faroese title in the previous season. The season was scheduled to start on 8 March[1] and later postponed to 15 March,[2] because of the outbreak of coronavirus in the Faroe Islands. The season started on 9 May 2020[3] and ended on 7 November 2020. This was decided after there had been no reported case of COVID-19 in the Faroe Islands from 6 April to 18 April. There has been no deaths due to COVID-19 in the Faroe Islands as of 8 November 2020.[4]
