The Austrian Bundesliga clubs FC Red Bull Salzburg and SC Austria Lustenau contested the final, with the winner earning a place in the 2020–21 UEFA Europa League group stage.

Austria Lustenau has never won the domestic cup, while Red Bull Salzburg has won it 6 times. The two teams have never met in the Austrian cup final.
