Aston Villa: Premier League 2024/25 fixtures and schedule

  /  autty

Aston Villa start their first Premier League campaign since qualifying for the Champions League with a trip to West Ham before hosting last season's runners-up Arsenal.

Unai Emery's side begin in the capital and become new West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui's first test, before they host Arsenal at Villa Park on August 24. Villa were the only side to do the double over Mikel Arteta's team last season.

Local rivals Wolves visit Villa Park on September 21, with the return fixture at Molineux on February 1.

Villa will have to wait until December 21 to see whether they can beat Man City on home soil two seasons in a row, with a long trip to Newcastle awaiting on Boxing Day in a busy month of Christmas fixtures, with six league matches - and a Champions League group game still to be scheduled.

The new year begins with an all-Midlands affair as Leicester visit Villa Park on January 4.

A tricky-looking end to the season then awaits, as games with Newcastle and Man City end April before Villa host Tottenham on May 18, and finish their campaign a week later at Man Utd on May 25.
