The Premier League launched in 1992-93, breaking away from the old Football League First Division to become English football's top tier.

Manchester United set the early pace, racking up title after title through the 1990s and 2000s. The last fifteen years, though, belong largely to Manchester City, whose spending and squad depth produced an unprecedented run of championships, including four in a row. Only two clubs, Blackburn Rovers and Leicester City, have ever crashed the party as unexpected one-off winners.

This page lists every Premier League champion and runner-up, season by season, from the inaugural 1992-93 campaign through to 2024-25 — the year Liverpool reclaimed the crown under Arne Slot. Note that these are Premier League era titles only; earlier First Division championships are counted separately.

Manchester United set the pace with 13 titles, all under Sir Alex Ferguson. Manchester City have closed fast since 2011-12, while Blackburn Rovers and Leicester City remain the only one-off winners to have crashed the established order.
