The 1953-54 Serie A was the fifty-second edition of the Italian Football Championship. It was the twenty-first Italian Football Championship branded Serie A, since Serie A was launched in 1929. This was the twenty-eighth season from which the Italian Football Champions adorned their team jerseys in the subsequent season with a Scudetto. Internazionale were champions for the second of two consecutive wins, and for the seventh time in their history. This was their fifth scudetto since the scudetto started being awarded in 1924, and their fifth win contested as Serie A.
