The Xperia XZ2 Premium counts with a quite bigger storage capacity to install applications and games or saving photos and videos than Galaxy A20, because although it has an external SD slot that holds 112 GB smaller, it also counts with 64 GB internal storage capacity. The Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium features a little bit better hardware performance than Samsung Galaxy A20, and although they both have 8 cores, the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium also has a higher amount of RAM memory.
The Galaxy A20 has just a bit better battery lifetime than Xperia XZ2 Premium, because it has a 4000mAh battery capacity instead of 3540mAh. The Xperia XZ2 Premium takes much better pictures and videos than Samsung Galaxy A20, because it has a larger aperture, a camera with a lot higher 19 MP resolution, a much better 3840x2160 (4K) video definition and a way larger back-facing camera sensor providing a lot better image quality.
Although Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium is a better device, it costs a lot more money than Galaxy A20, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Galaxy A20. If you want to save some dollars, you can buy the Galaxy A20, giving up a couple features and specs, but you'll get the most with your budget.
