Aston Villa have announced the news that they will play all 11 of their home matches in the Barclays Women’s Super League at Villa Park in 2024/2025.

Following this morning’s announcement, Aston Villa’s Head of Women’s Football, Lee Billiard said “This is another big step forward and represents a continuation of the progress of our women’s programme at Aston Villa.

“Through the support and hard work of many departments across the football club, we have been able to show Villa Park is a commercially viable venue for us.

“In the times we have played there, especially over the last couple of seasons, it has always created a special matchday experience for everyone involved.

“Players and staff collectively share an excitement to call Villa Park our primary ground from 2024/2025 onwards.

“Our relationship with Walsall Football Club continues as Poundland Bescot Stadium will be our secondary venue.”

The 2024/2025 Barclays Women’s Super League fixtures will be announced in due course.
