Leicester City vs Brentford LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from King Power Stadium
Follow live coverage as Leicester City face Brentford in the Premier League today.
Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.
It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.
It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Leicester City vs Brentford
Leicester will be gutted that they didn't manage to hold on for the win and next up for them is a trip to Arsenal. Meanwhile Brentford will look to get their first win of the season when they face Manchester United.
Leicester City vs Brentford
Brentford come from 2-0 down to nick a point at the King Power, with a superb Dasilva strike late on making it 2-2. The hosts led 1-0 at the break through Castagne and Dewsbury-Hall doubled their lead just seconds after the restart with a terrific strike from distance. However, Brentford hit back and Toney pulled one back on 62 minutes and the striker should have scored another from close range not long after. However, Dasilva popped up in the 86th-minute with a fantastic curling strike to fire his side level and that’s how it finished.
