Serie A 1973-74 team distribution

The 1973–74 Serie A season was won by Lazio.

Teams

Genoa, Cesena and Foggia had been promoted from Serie B.

Scandal

It was the second time, after the first one in 1955, that a corruption case effectively changed the classification of the Serie A. Hellas Verona were relegated, while Sampdoria, that themselves were touched by a minor alleged scandal, remained in Serie A.
