Follow live coverage as Everton face Tottenham Hotspur today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

All the positivity surrounding Tottenham’s back-to-back clean sheet wins against Liverpool and Tamworth in the League Cup and FA Cup respectively were dashed on Wednesday, when Arsenal came from behind to beat Spurs 2-1 in the north London derby, handing them their fourth Premier League defeat in five games. Just one place ahead of today’s opponents - albeit seven points in front - Ange Postecoglou’s side can still look up the table, with a victory potentially taking them as high as 12th by the end of the weekend.

David Moyes’ return to Goodison Park as coach of Everton after an almost 12-year absence did not go quite as planned, with Ollie Watkins’ lone strike handing the Toffees their third Premier League defeat in-a-row - all without scoring a goal - which keeps them two places and one point outside the relegation zone. Despite an attacking output that is better only than rock-bottom Southampton (15 goals scored in 20 matches), Everton have been impressive at the back, with only Liverpool, Arsenal and Nottingham Forest conceding fewer than their 26 strikes conceded.
