Data notes: All 288 games from the six played rounds are present. On 28 April 2020 ŠSČR decided not to complete the Extraliga and not to declare results. Teams have DNF status instead of final places; results from the six played rounds remain valid. Four early matches of rounds 1-2 were played on 5-6 October 2019; their PGN dates have been corrected. All clubs are marked DNF at round 6 to retain played statistics without awarding final places or medals. No teams withdrew individually. The 2020/2021 Extraliga did not start and was cancelled; no fictitious season file is created.
