No. Aston Villa have never won the Premier League. Their best finish is 2nd in 1992/93, and 2026/27 is their 32nd season in the competition.
The title record is straightforward
Aston Villa were part of the league from the very start, joining the first Premier League season in 1992/93 as one of the 22 founding clubs. Even with that long history, they have never finished top of the final table.

Villa's Premier League story has 2 spells
The club's time in the Premier League has come in 2 separate periods rather than one continuous run. That split matters because it explains both their long-term presence and the one break in their top-flight stay.
| Spell | Seasons | How it ended |
|---|---|---|
| First spell | 1992/93–2015/16 | Relegated |
| Second spell | 2019/20–2025/26 | Still in the league in 2026/27 |
The timeline shows a long stay, then a break, then a return that has lasted into the current Premier League cycle. It also explains why the club can have deep roots in the competition without appearing in every season since its launch.
What their overall Premier League record shows
