Main article: 2020 Louisville Cardinals men's soccer team

The teams' 2020 season was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which curtailed the fall season and caused the NCAA Tournament to be played in spring 2021. The ACC was one of the only two conferences in men's soccer to play in the fall of 2020. The ACC also held a mini-season during the spring of 2021.

The Cardinals finished the fall season 1–6–1 and 1–4–1 in ACC play to finish in fifth place in the North Division. They were not invited to the ACC Tournament. They finished the spring season 4–2–0 and 4–2–0 in ACC play, to finish in second place in the Atlantic Division. They were not invited to the NCAA Tournament.
