The 1941-42 Serie A was the forty-second edition of the Italian Football Championship and the thirteenth since 1929 re-branding to create Serie A. It was the nineteenth season from which the Italian Football Champions adorned their team jerseys in the subsequent season with a Scudetto. AS Roma were champions for the first time in their history and the first Italian Football Championship won by a team from outside Northern Italy. This was thus also their first scudetto since the scudetto started being awarded in 1924 and their first win contested as Serie A.

Teams

Liguria and Modena had been promoted from Serie B.
