Follow live coverage as Fulham face Leicester City 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:

Leicester City travel to London after a spirited 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur in their opening fixture. However, the Foxes will be wary that they have won just two of their last 15 Premier League away games against London sides (D3 L10), beating Brentford in October 2021 and West Ham in November 2022. They’ve conceded at least twice in each of their 10 defeats in that run.

Fulham host their first game at Craven Cottage of the new season, looking to make the most of home advantage as they go in search of their first points of the season after their opening day 1-0 defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford last weekend. Should they achieve a win today they will dispel an unwanted record of not winning their opening home game of a Premier League season since they defeated Norwich City 5-0 in the 2012-13 season.
