The 2019–20 season is Brisbane Roar's 15th participating in the A-League and in the FFA Cup for the 6th time. Brisbane also announced they would split home A-League games between Suncorp Stadium and Dolphin Oval in Redcliffe.

On 24 March 2020, the FFA announced that the 2019–20 A-League season would be postponed until further notice due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia and New Zealand,[1] and subsequently extended indefinitely. The season resumed on 17 July 2020.[2]
