History
Inaugurated in 1988, in 18 of the first 21 games contested, the Coppa Italia was played at the home of the Serie A champions, the exceptions being in 1993 and 2003, when it was held in the United States cities of Washington, D.C., and East Rutherford, New Jersey, and in 2002 when the final was played in the Libyan capital Tripoli. Since 2009, the venue chosen has mostly been outside of Italy.
Of the 29 finals played to date, the venues have been as follows:
If, in the previous year, the same team wins both the Serie A and Coppa Italia titles, the Supercoppa is contested by the Serie A winner and the Coppa Italia runner-up. This has happened so far six times: 1995, 2015, and 2016 (Juventus), 2000 (Lazio), 2006 and 2010 (Internazionale).
Juventus and Milan jointly hold the record for winning the cup the most times, both winning it seven times since the competition began in 1988.
On 23 December 2016, Milan became the first Coppa Italia runner-up to win Supercoppa Italiana after defeating Juventus on penalties.
