The 1947-48 Serie A was the forty-sixth edition of the Italian Football Championship. It was the fifteenth Italian Football Championship branded Serie A, since Serie A was launched in 1929. This was the twenty-second season from which the Italian Football Champions adorned their team jerseys in the subsequent season with a Scudetto. Torino were champions for the fifth time in their history. This was their fifth scudetto since the scudetto started being awarded in 1924 and their third win contested as Serie A. This was their fourth of five consecutive Italian Football Championship wins, punctuated by a two-year break due to World War II.

Teams

Pro Patria for Northern Italy, Lucchese for Central Italy and Salernitana for Southern Italy had been promoted from Serie B.
