Follow live coverage as West Ham United face Crystal Palace 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:

FABIANSKI DENIES MATETA! A poor Kilman pass is pounced upon by Palace and Mateta is played through and he tries to catch the Pole off guard by shooting early, but he manages to scramble across and save the shot.

West Ham have the first chance of note. The Hammers just give a warning sign to Palace and Kudus shows why you can't relax around him, he spears an attack and it ends with Wan-Bissaka skewing a volley wide. It isn't his strong point to be fair to him and it nearly turned into a great pass to Cresswell. Anyway, Palace have now got the ball back.

Palace have started really well here and have set up in possession in a really attacking manner. The three centre-backs are all in West Ham's half and the midfielders are quickest to every loose ball right now. A positive opening for Glasner, the complete opposite to their match against Leicester midweek.

Palace have had the ball for the opening three minutes. Literally all of it but it ends with Eze blazing a shot over the bar.

One team that has managed to get the best out of strikers is Crystal Palace, and on this occasion it is Mateta. He has been lethal since the arrival of Glasner and despite a small blip at the start of the season, it looks as if he is back to the form of last campaign. He holds up play so well but can also apply the finish to moves which has been key in Palace's turnaround. It is a strong line-up but the one glaring miss is Trevoh Chalobah who returned to Chelsea from his loan. Glasner wasn't keen to see him leave but in a positive light, it may mean Guehi is going to stay for one more window.

Potter is a manager who usually prefers a back three formation but since arriving at West Ham he has opted for a four-man defence, but with five supposed defenders on the pitch it makes it a fluid system which is something the English coach prefers. Kudus is the man to start up front, with injuries or poor form once again hindering the Hammers up front. They have never seemed to master that position when it comes to big-money signings.

Unlike West Ham, Palace kept with their manager and it seems to be paying dividends. Oliver Glasner has turned the tide at Selhurst Park and has got his team performing again. A European push was a possibility looking at their form at the end of last season but now the Austrian will just be focussed on getting as many points on the board and seeing where they end up because this has been a topsy-turvy season for everyone in the league.

It was a winning start to life in the Premier League as West Ham manager for Graham Potter, albeit a slightly fortunate one. Fulham gifted the Hammers two goals in their 3-2 victory but that won't worry the newly instated Englishman. He has another London derby to focus on now with Crystal Palace travelling west of the capital. Both teams have had a slow opening half of their Premier League campaign but seem to be turning a corner.
