The 1907–08 Football League season was Aston Villa's 20th season in the First Division, the top flight of English football at the time. The season fell in what was to be called Villa's golden era.

In the Second City Derby, both teams won their away fixtures. Birmingham would be relegated this year and the teams would not meet again in top flight competition until their promotion fifteen years later.

New additions to the squad included Charlie Wallace, Bert Turner, Roly Harper, Joseph Wilcox, George Reeves, Tommy Lyons, Walter Kimberley and Peter Kyle.

Bobby Evans continued to add to his tally of Welsh caps.

There were debuts for Charlie Wallace, Bert Turner, Joseph Wilcox, George Reeves, Tom Lyons, Walter Kimberley, Roly Harper (2) and Peter Kyle.
