Follow live coverage as AFC Bournemouth face Nottingham Forest 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:

SAVED! Elanga shoots from just outside the box with his left foot, and it is a great hit in the end. Kepa gets up excellently to palm the ball away from the top left corner!

The game has returned to a calm state, as the game is all but over. Neither side are attacking with too much effort, and they’re both happy to sit on the ball.
