Aston Villa’s Premier League fixtures for the upcoming 2025–26 campaign will shortly be confirmed.

It will be Unai Emery’s fourth season in charge of the club and his third full campaign after leaving Villarreal halfway through 2022–23.

Villa will play Europa League football next term after missing out on Champions League qualification, following their 2–0 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford on the final day of last season.

The Premier League fixtures for the 2025–26 season will be released at 09:00 on Wednesday.

The new season will start on Friday, August 15, with a single fixture and conclude on Sunday, May 24, 2026, when all matches will be played at 16:00.

Next season, there will be 33 weekend rounds of fixtures, plus five midweek rounds.

For the last two seasons, Villa have started the season and finished it away from home.

Supporters will also be interested to know where each fixture falls within a packed Europa League phase calendar.

Last season, Villa won just one of their nine Premier League matches that were played directly after a European fixture in the group phase.

However, after the winter break, Villa won all four games following their knockout ties against Club Brugge and Paris Saint-Germain.

Here are the dates for the Europa League matches:

Matchday 1: 25/26 September 2024

Matchday 2: 3 October 2024

Matchday 3: 24 October 2024

Matchday 4: 7 November 2024

Matchday 5: 28 November 2024

Matchday 6: 12 December 2024

Matchday 7: 23 January 2025

Matchday 8: 30 January 2025

Villa will discover who they play in the league phase when the draw is made on Friday, August 29.
