The 2017–18 Serie A (known as the Serie A TIM for sponsorship reasons) was the 116th season of top-tier Italian football, the 86th in a round-robin tournament and the 8th since its organization under a league committee separate from Serie B. Juventus were the six-time defending champions. The season ran from 19 August 2017 to 20 May 2018.[12][13]

Events

On 13 May 2017, SPAL was promoted from Serie B after 49 years.[14] Five days later, Hellas Verona was promoted from Serie B after one year of relegation while on 8 June 2017, Benevento won the play-off to earn its first promotion in Serie A; the 67th team to participate in the Italian top level league.[15]

After video assistant refereeing (VAR) was privately tested in the previous season, on 10 June 2017 it was announced replay assistance would be implemented for this season.[16] The percentage of errors in Serie A in this season was 0.89 percent, compared to 5.78 percent if VAR was not used.[17]

On 4 March 2018, Davide Astori, captain of Fiorentina, died in his sleep while staying in a hotel in Udine prior to Fiorentina's match against Udinese, proven to be caused by cardiac arrest determined from an autopsy conducted two days later.[18] All Serie A, Serie B and Serie C matches scheduled for 4 March were postponed.[19] Cagliari and Fiorentina both retired the number 13 jersey worn by Astori in his honour.[20][21]

Teams that got relegated were Benevento (on 22 April 2018, after one year),[22] Verona (on 5 May 2018, after one year also),[23] and Crotone (on 20 may 2018, after 2 seasons in the top level).[24]

On 13 May 2018, Juventus won their seventh title in a row and the 34th in their history.[25] Four days later, iconic Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon announced his farewell to Serie A (and the national football team).[26][27] He left Serie A after 23 career seasons, the last 17 being with Juventus, nine league titles and 640 caps, the second highest in Serie A.[28]
