Team names in bold indicate the club is a current Premier League member


ItalicsIndicates that the team qualified for a European tournament that season, but not based upon the performance in the Premier League. The superscript identifies the route used for European qualification.
REDIndicates that the team were relegated from the Premier League to the EFL Championship.

^[a] Chelsea won the 2011–12 UEFA Champions League, pursuant to the rules in effect at the time, only four clubs from the Premier League could play in the Champions League. This meant that Tottenham, who would usually qualify for the Champions League with a 4th place Premier League finish, were relegated to the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League instead.

^[b] Originally Portsmouth qualified for the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League as FA Cup runners-up, replacing the Champions League-qualified Chelsea. However, they failed to apply for a UEFA license. Therefore, Liverpool took their place.
