The 2020–21 Serie A (known as the Serie A TIM for sponsorship reasons) is the 119th season of top-tier Italian football, the 89th in a round-robin tournament, and the 11th since its organization under an own league committee, the Lega Serie A.
Following Atalanta's draw with Sassuolo on 2 May 2021, Internazionale were confirmed as champions for the first time since the 2009–10 season, ending Juventus' run of nine consecutive titles.
Teams[]
Twenty teams will compete in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and three teams promoted from the Serie B.
Benevento (on 29 June 2020) and Crotone (on 24 July 2020) were the two teams directly promoted from Serie B, both after a 2-year absence. On 20 August 2020, Spezia won the play-offs to earn its first promotion to Serie A; Spezia is the 66th team to participate in the Italian top level league.
