Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Everton 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:

Crystal Palace vs Everton

Alcaraz is the hero in south London. It wasn’t a pretty win but Moyes’ successful return continues as his Everton move further away from relegation and into up to 13th, above Manchester United and Tottenham. Alcaraz set up the first when he made the most of a poor Mitchell pass and found Beto, who extended his impressive goal-scoring form. Two minutes after the restart it looked like it was going to be a nervy second period with Mateta levelling but Alcaraz then turned goalscorer and sunk Palace with a close-range strike. Palace may feel like they should have got more out of this game with Sarr smashing the bar and they amounted to an xG of 1.52 compared to the Toffees’ 0.76 but it is the away side leaving Selhurst Park with a vital win.

Mateta finds himself on the wing which isn't ideal from a Palace perspective, but he plucks a cross out and Eze is let down by his touch, which Young sees out for a goal kick. Everton are holding firm.

Everton win a throw-in right in the corner and try to stay there but Harrison's heavy touch concedes a goal kick for Palace, and it allows the home side to put more pressure on Everton.

EZE DRAGS HIS SHOT WIDE! It is nice interplay between him and Sarr, with the former just taking a touch into the box but lacks the precision to test Pickford and it dribbles wide.
