The race for the Champions League places should also be a compelling battle, with a fifth place possible for English teams. Manchester United’s latest rebuild under Ruben Amorim sets expectations high once more after a dismal season last time out.
Meanwhile, it’s Burnley, Leeds United and Sunderland 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:
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Fulham
It is all over at the Amex, as Fulham snatch a point at the very end in a 1-1 finish. Muniz is there to put in the corner, cancelling out O'Reilly's penalty early in the second half. Brighton looked the more dangerous side for much of the game, with Fulham only really piling the pressure after going behind. Still, give credit to the West Londoners, who found a way to grab something from the match. The xG at full-time reads 1.54 for Brighton to Fulham's 0.69. Thank you for tuning into this live text commentary. We hope you enjoyed the coverage. Take care, and until next time.

Muniz is shown a yellow card for an excessive celebration.

Smith Rowe does well to get his away around a couple of players, but his shot is tipped wide and goes out for a corner.

That might have been Fulham's best chance of the match. Smith Rowe does so well to find Tete in the box, but the full-back can only put his shot over the bar, failing to challenge Verbruggen.

Gomez has another opportunity there. Leno takes too long to grab the ball, so he comes and gets a shot off. The German is able to stop him before the whistle was blown dead.

Cairney is very late with his tackle on Ayari, and is given a yellow card for his troubles.

Gomez has an effort that drags just wide of the mark. However, he was offside in any case, so even if he converted the chance, it would not have counted.
