2025–26 Serie A

2025–26 Serie A

The 2025–26 Serie A (known as the Serie A Enilive and Serie A Made in Italy for sponsorship reasons domestically and abroad, respectively) is the 124th season of top-tier Italian football, the 94th in a round-robin tournament, and the 16th since its organization under an own league committee, the Lega Serie A. The season began on 23 August 2025 and is scheduled to conclude on 24 May 2026. Napoli are the defending champions, having won their fourth Serie A title in the previous season.

On 8 February 2026, a match between Milan and Como was scheduled to be held at Optus Stadium in Perth, Australia. Had it gone ahead, it would have been the first match from one of Europe's top five leagues to be played outside Europe. The fixture was scheduled to take place two days after the opening ceremony of the 2026 Winter Olympics at San Siro in the city of Milan, which rendered the stadium unavailable for the match; however, the match did not take place following a joint statement by the Government of Western Australia and Lega Serie A, which attributed the decision to what they described as the Asian Football Confederation's "escalation of further unacceptable demands".

Teams

2025–26 Serie A

Twenty teams are competing: the top seventeen teams from the previous season and three promoted teams from Serie B. The promoted teams include the two top teams from the Serie B table, and the winner of the promotion play-offs. Sassuolo returned to Serie A after one year away, becoming the first team to secure promotion, following their 3–1 victory over Modena and Spezia's 2–2 draw with Mantova. On the other end of the table, Monza were the first team to be relegated to Serie B, following a 0–4 loss to Atalanta, bringing an end to their three-year stint in Serie A. The remaining two relegation spots were decided on the final matchday, 25 May 2025, with Venezia and Empoli going down after their respective 2–3 and 1–2 losses to Juventus and Hellas Verona, ending their one and four-years spell in the league. Pisa made their return to Italy's top league following a 34-year absence, their longest in club history, after defeating Bari 1–0, combined with Spezia's 1–2 loss to Reggiana. The final team to earn promotion was Cremonese, who returned to the top flight after a two-year absence, following a 0–0 draw at home and a 3–2 away victory over Spezia in the second leg of the play-off final on 1 June.
