1942–43 Serie A

The 1942–43 Serie A was the forty-third edition of the Italian Football Championship and its fourteenth since 1929 rebranding to create Serie A. It was the twentieth season from which the Italian Football Champions adorned their team jerseys in the subsequent season with a Scudetto. Torino F.C. were champions for the second time in their history. This was their second scudetto since the scudetto started being awarded in 1924 and their first win contested as Serie A. This was their first of five consecutive Italian Football Championship wins, punctuated by a two-year break due to World War II. It was the last Serie A for three years due to the regional format used in the first season of the Italian championship immediately post-war in 1945–46.
