ISL 2019-20 Winners: ATK

Followed by the name change in 2018-18, Atletico de Kolkata were known by ATK. The Kolkata side welcomed back Antonio Lopez Habas and brought several changes to the roster after two disappointing seasons. Riding on the class of Roy Krishna and David Williams upfront, ATK looked unstoppable. They met Chennaiyin FC in the final in Goa. The Red and Whites ran out comfortable 3-1 winners.

The ISL 2019-20 season was special because the league was awarded the AFC Champions League Group stage slot for the 2020-21 season. The league winners, FC Goa who were the most consistent side of the league were awarded the ISL League Winners shield. FC Goa will become the first ever Indian football club to play in the AFC Champions League Group Stage in the 2020-21 season.
