| Serie A 2004-05 Winners |
|---|
| No winner |
In the 2004-05 season, the Serie A, the major football Italian professional league, was composed by 20 teams, for the first time in several years.
The first two teams qualified directly to UEFA Champions League, teams ending in the 3rd and 4th places had to play Champions League qualifications, teams ending in the 5th and 6th places qualified to UEFA Cup (another spot was given to the winner of Coppa Italia), while the last three teams were to be relegated in Serie B, the Italian second division.
Juventus finished first in the table. However the club was subsequently stripped in 2006 of what would have been their 28th national title because of their involvement in the 2006 Serie A scandal. Udinese Calcio qualified for its first time to UEFA Champions League; US Palermo, at its first Serie A campaign in over 30 years, reached the 6th place, gaining access to UEFA Cup for the first time in its history; AS Roma qualified for UEFA Cup as the runner-up in Coppa Italia because the cup winner, Inter Milan, already qualified for CL Qualifying. As regards the relegations, two teams, Brescia and Atalanta, were directly relegated to Serie B, while the third relegation was to be decided among three teams, Fiorentina, Bologna, and Parma; counting only the so-called classifica avulsa, that is the table composed solely by the six matches between the three teams, Bologna and Parma had less points, and played the relegation tiebreaker; the tiebreaker was won by Parma, defeated 0–1 at home but winning 0–2 away in the return match.
