During the 1999–2000 English football season, Aston Villa competed in theFA Premier League.
Aston Villa matched their previous season's solid sixth-place finish. After starting the campaign brightly a run of nine matches without a win dragged Villa down to 15th. However, after that Villa rallied to go 12 matches unbeaten, and thereafter lost only two more games all season to finish sixth. Villa also reached theFA Cup final for the first time in 43 years, but their hopes of winning the famous trophy for the eighth time were ended by a 1–0 defeat at the hands ofChelsea, whose success was achieved in the last game atWembley before the old stadium was rebuilt.[1]
