The Serie A (short for Serie A in Italian) is the highest - level professional football league in Italy. It was founded in 1898 and currently has 20 teams participating. The league adopts a home - and - away double - round - robin system. Each team plays two matches against the other 19 teams, and there are a total of 38 rounds in a whole season. Serie A is famous worldwide for its "catenaccio" defensive system, emphasizing the compactness of the defensive formation, the synergy of zonal defense, and the tactical execution ability of quickly transitioning from defense to attack. Teams generally pay great attention to tactical discipline. For example, they limit the opponent's space through precise defensive line positioning and disrupt the attacking rhythm by midfield pressing. This style has dominated European football for decades. The classic matches of traditional giants such as Juventus, AC Milan, and Inter Milan are typical examples.
