Follow live coverage as West Ham United face Ipswich Town 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:

Newly-promoted Ipswich are on a four game unbeaten run in the league, drawing all of them. They came from behind last week to cllaim a valuable point against Aston Villa at home with summer signing Liam Delap scoring twice. They currently sit 15th, just one point and one place behind today's opponents and will aim for their first win of the campaign against a stuttering and underperforming West Ham side that will be under pressure at home. Kieran McKenna's side are without a win on the road since defeating Coventry 2-1 in April.

West Ham have made a poor start to the season, with just two wins from their opening eight games in all competitions and they're winless in their last five. The Hammers rescued a point last time out through Tomas Soucek's goal away to Brentford but manager Julen Lopetegui knows a win against newly-promoted Ipswich is vital in their final match before the international break. They currently find themselves in 14th, just two points above the bottom three and six points behind the top six.
