Summary

The team placed first in the 1975–76 League season being their seventh Serie A title ever. The scudetto was won after a comeback against Juventus,[2] who held a five-point advantage over the Granata during the spring. However, three straight losses for the Bianconeri, the second of which was in the derby, allowed Torino to overtake.[3] In the final round, Torino held a one-point advantage and, until then, had won every previous home fixture. Torino hosted Cesena at the Comunale but could only manage to draw; Juventus, however, were defeated at Perugia.[4] The title was won by two points ahead of Juventus, 27 years after the Superga tragedy.
