Follow live coverage as Liverpool face Everton 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:

Everton, meanwhile, are in a rich vein of form themselves, unbeaten in their last nine matches under David Moyes and climbing 17 points clear of the relegation zone since the Scot returned to Goodison Park. The last Merseyside Derby at Goodison saw the Toffees spark pandemonium by rescuing a 98th minute draw, and having drawn their last four games in a row, Everton will be hoping to upset Liverpool’s canter to the title and inflict only a second defeat of the season on Slot’s side.

Arne Slot’s Reds sit nine points clear at the summit with just nine games to play this season, and can re-establish their 12-point gap to second-placed Arsenal with a victory here. Liverpool may have won their last three league games in a row, but come into this one having been dumped out of the Champions League by PSG and losing the EFL Cup Final to Newcastle prior to the international break.
