The 2009–10 season was Juventus Football Club's 112th in existence and third consecutive season in the top flight of Italian football.
Domestically, the team competed in Serie A, finishing seventh, as well as in the Coppa Italia, where they were eliminated in the quarter-finals. Having finished second in 2008–09, Juventus automatically qualified for a place in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League. After drawing their first two games, against Bordeaux and Bayern Munich, and winning their next two, a double header against Maccabi Haifa, the team lost their last two group stage games, including a 4–1 home defeat against Bayern Munich on the last matchday. As a result, they finished third in their group and qualified for a place in the Round of 32 in the UEFA Europa League. In this secondary competition, Juventus were knocked out in the Round of 16 after the second leg ended as a 4–1 (5–4 on aggregate) loss for the second time in Europe, this time in England against Fulham.
