The 2011–12 season was Swansea City's third season in the first tier of English football, and their first return to top-flight football since 1983.^[3][4] During the 2010–11 season, Swansea finished in 3rd place and beat Reading 4–2 in the Championship play-off final, to win promotion to the Premier League. In doing so, they became the first Welsh team to enter the Premier League.^[5] Swansea finished the season at 11th place after beating Liverpool 1–0 in the last game of the season on 13 May 2012.^[6] Safety was already confirmed two weeks prior when the Swans drew 4–4 with Wolverhampton Wanderers on 28 April 2012,^[7] a game Swansea had led 4–1, although Andrea Orlandi posted the fastest goal of the season in that match after 24 seconds.^[8]

¹Liverpool have won the 2011–12 Football League Cup and thus have qualified for the third qualifying round of the 2012–13 UEFA Europa League.
²Chelsea have won the 2011–12 Champions League and thus have qualified for the 2012–13 Competition. This means that Tottenham are now to compete in the Europa League in the 2012-13 season, since only four clubs from the English Premier League can play in the Champions League.

Only applicable when the season is not finished:
(Q) = Qualified to the phase of tournament indicated; (TQ) = Qualified to tournament, but not yet to the particular phase indicated; (RQ) = Qualified to the relegation tournament indicated; (DQ) = Disqualified from tournament.
