Davide Marchini (born 23 February 1981) is an Italian football coach and former midfielder. He began in the youth ranks of Spal and went on to play for several Italian clubs during his career. He appeared for San Marino from 1999 to 2002, then for Alzano Virescit, Lanciano, Chievo, Sassari Torres and Triestina. In 2007 he was loaned to Cagliari, making his Serie A debut on 21 January 2007 against Catania. He also spent time under a joint-ownership arrangement with Cagliari and had a loan spell at Bologna. His period at Cagliari included limited appearances and some off-field controversy, which the club denied was connected to a teammate.

In 2008 Triestina bought him back and loaned him to Bologna. He joined Livorno in 2009, moved to Spezia in 2010, and signed with SPAL in 2012. He later played for lower-league clubs Comacchio Lidi and Argentana. After retiring as a player, Marchini became a coach, leading Progresso from 2017 to 2019 and Sasso Marconi from 2020 to 2021.
