Allan Lichtman, the professor who has correctly predicted every presidential election since 1984, one of the few (probably only) that said Trump would win in 2016, says Biden will defeat Trump in 2020.

But he's also extremely, rabidly, anti-trump in the last few years based on his twitter, and now also wants to repeal the 2nd amendment. Soooo there's that. He might be a little biased now.

He might have also took massive election fraud into account.

He claims his reasoning is the economy, and that's what he weighs into his formula the heaviest. He says a strong economy in a re-election year almost guarantees the incumbent will be re-elected, and a weak or impaired economy will guarantee a loss for the incumbent.

As we all know,

It's the economy, stupid!

Which is totally right.

But I think this time around, Americans will be smart enough to see it was Democrats abusing the Covid-19 situation in an attempt to tank Trump's Economy. The Democratic party leadership is not actually stupid. They know the economy is important to a re-election, as do the Republicans. Hence why Trump has been doing whatever he can to strengthen the economy and make people courageous about Covid, whereas the Democrats have been doing whatever they can to spread fear about Covid and tank the economy.
