Italy's premier knockout competition, won a record 15 times by Juventus.

The Coppa Italia is Italy's leading knockout football competition, established in 1922 and organized by the Italian Football Federation. The modern tournament draws around 44 clubs from Serie A, Serie B and Serie C, with top-flight sides entering in the later rounds while lower-division teams begin earlier in the competition. Matches through the early and middle rounds are typically single-leg affairs, while the semi-finals are contested over two legs, home and away. The final is a standalone one-off match, traditionally staged at Rome's Stadio Olimpico. Where scores are level, ties go to extra time and penalties rather than being replayed. The winner claims a place in the following season's UEFA Europa League and faces the Serie A champions in the season-opening Supercoppa Italiana. Juventus are the competition's most successful club with 15 titles, ahead of Inter Milan's 10. Inter Milan won the 2025/26 final, beating Lazio 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico to lift their tenth Coppa Italia. For fans following the scores and the draw, the Coppa Italia offers a shorter, sharper alternative to the long league season, with the possibility of shock results whenever a lower-division side draws a Serie A giant.
