Follow live coverage as Arsenal 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:

Arsenal's chances of victory in our live probability tracker have risen up to a whopping 84.0% despite their unconvincing first-half display, but with Palace down on just a 3.3% chance of winning themselves, they've got it all to do in the second half as Trossard gets proceedings back underway.

Eze has been Palace's creative hub as usual and equalised for the Eagles with a superbly-struck volley; that being one of three shots he attempted in an all-action first half. The playmaker has created two big chances from just three final-third passes thus far, as well as winning two of his three duels and turning possession over once in the final third for Oliver Glasner's side.

The half-time whistle sounds, and Arsenal enter the dressing rooms with a 2-1 lead over Crystal Palace in this north-south London derby. It's not been entirely convincing from the hosts, who took the lead inside five minutes thanks to Kiwior's bullet header from an Odegaard free-kick. Since then though, it's arguably been Palace on top, with the visitors producing 1.18 xG to Arsenal's 0.22 and seeing efforts from Kamada and Nketiah blocked before Eze volleyed home a corner in superb style to make it 1-1. The Gunners did have chances at the other end though, and after Rice had gone close on a couple of occasions, Trossard stepped inside to finish in clinical fashion, restoring the advantage for Mikel Arteta's side heading into the second half at the Emirates.

BLOCKED!!! Palace break at speed from a cleared Arsenal corner and the ball comes out to Guehi after two Mitchell crosses are blocke. Kamada tees him up for a first-time striker, but the captain's curling effort is blocked away from danger by Kiwior!
