The 1949–50 Serie A was the forty-eighth edition of the Italian Football Championship. It was the seventeenth Italian Football Championship branded Serie A, since Serie A was launched in 1929. This was the twenty-fourth season from which the Italian Football Champions adorned their team jerseys in the subsequent season with a Scudetto. Juventus were champions for the eighth time in their history. This was their seventh scudetto since the scudetto started being awarded in 1924 and their sixth win contested as Serie A. This ended their rivals Torino's run of five consecutive Italian Football Championship wins, after the Torino first team squad was killed in the Superga air disaster.
