The 2024–25 Premier League Cup is the eleventh edition of the competition.

This year's competition expands to 36 academies with a group stage featuring nine groups of four clubs. Teams face each other twice in the group stage, home and away. All knockout games will be one-legged ties. The 9 group winners and the 7 best runners up from the group stages will advance to Knockout Stage of the competition.Fulham are the defending champions beating 4–0 Tottenham Hotspur in last year's final. However, there will be a new champion because Fulham did not enter the competition this year after 5 straight seasons in the competition. The runners up from last competition Tottenham Hotspur did not return as well after 1 competition. It is the first time the Champion and runners up did not participate in the competition the very next year. Other teams not returning from last year include Aston Villa after 1 season, Crystal Palace after 2 straight seasons, Middlesbrough after 4 straight seasons, Newcastle United 10 straight seasons as a inaugural competitor, and Peterborough United after 2 consecutive seasons. In total, 7 teams from last year's competition will not be playing this time around.

9 teams returned to the competition including Coventry City who did not participate since the inaugural tournament in 2014–15, Preston North End returned for the first time in the group stage portion of the competition since the competition was a single knockout round tournament in 2015–16, Exeter City^[1] who returned to the competition for the first time since 2021–22, while Cardiff City, Derby County, Everton, Queens Park Rangers, Southampton, and Watford all return after having missed out on last years competition. Two teams will be competing as for the very first time; Bromley^[2] and Stockport County.
