During the 1942–43 season Associazione Calcio Torino competed in Serie A and Coppa.

Summary At the start of the 1942–43 season, available to Hungarian András Kuttik,RSSSF.com there was a squad that included top players: expert goalkeepers Bodoira and Cavalli; defenders of expertise such as Ferrini, Ellena and quality like Piacentini and Cassano; in midfield the veterans Baldi and Gallea, with the new Ezio Loik and Mazzola; forward Menti and Ferraris, and Gabetto and Ossola.

On paper, Torino were considered favourites for the title, but they faced competition from Livorno. The championship was decided on the final matchday, when Torino secured the title with a goal from Mazzola against Bari.

Torino also managed to win the Coppa Italia against their "terrible" Venezia of the year before and became the first team to hit the "double". The game is played in Milan and the Granata, thanks to a brace from Gabetto and goals from Mazzola and Ferraris II, get the win with a resounding 4–0.
