The 2019–20 Kenyan Premier League was the 17th season of the Kenyan Premier League, the top-tier football league in Kenya, since it began in 2003, and the 57th season of top-division football in Kenya since 1963. The season started on 30 August 2019, but was suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the final table was determined by the table at the half-way point of the season. As such, Gor Mahia were crowned champions and Chemelil Sugar were relegated, with SoNy Sugar having been expelled earlier in the season.[1][2] Kisumu All Stars were later relegated after losing in a relegation play-off to Vihiga United.[1]
