Follow live coverage as Brighton & Hove Albion face Norwich City in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after a dominant 2020/21 season and Pep Guardiola's side are favourites to win it again boasting as they do one of the best squads in Europe.

European champions Chelsea have proven they have what it takes to dethrone City, however, having done it in last season's Champions League final and will be hoping to add a domestic title to the one won in Porto.

Liverpool were winners back in 2020 ending a 30-year wait for league glory and Jurgen Klopp is sure to have them back challenging again at the sharp end this season too while Manchester United will be looking to be back in the title picture with Cristiano Ronaldo returning to his former club in the summer.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Norwich, Watford and Brentford promoted to the top tier for 2020/21 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.

It finishes goalless at the Amex between Brighton and Norwich, but both teams end their six-game losing streaks, however, Brighton will feel that they should have won the game after having countless opportunities throughout, with Krul in excellent form in the visitors goal to deny Veltman, Maupay and Mac Allister in the second half. Norwich didn't offer much at the other end until late on, when Rashica went close and in the end they settled for a point.

Stoppage in play here as Moder is receiving some treatment on the pitch after an incident off the ball and it doesn't look good for the Brighton man who has only just come on.
