Serie A fantasy football is where it all began. It started in cafes with old men circling the names of their favourite footballers in crumpled-up papers. It began when they invented a game called fantacalcio in order to test each other’s football skills.
Fortunately, the game is still going strong. In modern, digital form, FootballCoin has taken many of those ideas and has expanded upon them.
But what can you expect from the 2025/2026 season? And how does Serie A fantasy football work? Here’s a look at everything that you need to know ahead of a new Serie A campaign.

How to Play in the Serie A fantacalcio Fantasy Football Each Week?
Each week is a new opportunity to win!
Unlike other fantasy football games, FootballCoin allows you to pick a brand new team each week, for each contest.
Serie A fantasy football teams are judged based on the real performances of the players in them.
You’ll simply need to log into your account, join one of the existing contests (free and private) and create your ideal team.
There are no restrictions on selecting the players. There is no budget that you have to worry about.
Select the cards of the players that you want on your team.
The vast majority of cards are free to use by everyone. The cards ranked 3*, 4* and 5* are issued on FootballCoin’s own blockchain network.
Are There Real Cash Prizes in FootballCoin?
Yes, absolutely! What’s more, these are sent into a user’s account as soon as a contest has been decided.
These prizes are provided in XFC, the official, long-running crypto coin of FootballCoin. XFC can be immediately traded for fiat using well-respected cryptocurrency exchanges.
Who Are the Clubs You Want to Watch from Italy’s Serie A?
Napoli surprised many by comfortably securing the Scudetto last season. And the club shocked even more people by securing Antonio Conte’s services for, at least, one more campaign, for the 2025/2026 season. The Partenopei are the favourites to win.
Meanwhile, Inter Milan has a new manager (Cristian Chivu) and a good deal of great recent results that it needs to defend. They’re one of the teams to watch.
Juventus has struggled to find its identity in recent years. But Igor Tudor’s stubbornness and exciting transfers over the past 12 months could bring the Old Lady back on track.
Atalanta, Lazio, AC Milan and AS Roma are also teams that should always be monitored closely.
Who Are the Top Players that You Want to Watch in the 2025/2026 Season of the Serie A?
The star situation in the Serie A is better than it has been in years, quite honestly.
While the nation has adopted Scott McTominay as an honorary Italian, his success has meant that players like Kevin de Bruyne or Luka Modric have been eager to join Serie A this season.
Other important stars include Inter’s Lautaro Martinez, Alessandro Bastoni or Marcus Thuram, AC Milan’s Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic, or Juventus’ Jonathan David and Dusan Vlahovic.
What’s the Process of Picking Your Favourite Players from Italy’s Serie A?
FootballCoin is a game of knowledge. The fantasy football managers who have the most of it tend to win.
In order to pick your FootballCoin team, simply select a contest that you want to join and pick cards representing your favourite players.
You will need, of course, a starting eleven plus subs. Player performances are judged based on a complex scoring system.
Think you got what it takes? Show up each week and prove it!
What Strategies Allow You to Win in Serie A Fantasy Football?
Does Antonio Conte often stray from playing three defenders? Will Cristian Chivu or Igor Tudor stray from the tactical DNA of Internazionale or Juventus?
Each fantasy football manager, similarly, must develop their own strategies and techniques.
Each choice impacts the score of the team and their chances of winning. You are the manager, and you need to lead your team to victory!
