Mission Control used to provide the ability to assign apps to spaces. The options are missing in Catalina. Some apps will appear in the last used space but there is no way to assign an app to a space anymore.

Control-Click the apps icon in the dock while it is running.

OK, I'm running same system yet Assign To Options do not appear for me. One different might be that I have two displays with a different desktop (space) on each. In Mojave I could assign apps to each desktop (space) in order to move them to default displays.
However, your comment helped me solve the problem. I needed to add another desktop (space) to one of my displays. With the addition of a second desktop on one of the displays then the Assign To Options appeared again.
Yes, that's how it used to work, but it is NOT working in Catalina 10.15.1.
The screen print is from:
System Version: macOS 10.15.1 (19B88)
Kernel Version: Darwin 19.0.0
Boot Volume: Macintosh HD
Boot Mode: Normal

Just make sure that you have at least two spaces created in on each display. Then it should work fine by assigning apps.
Good Luck.
