AFC Bournemouth vs Leeds United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Vitality Stadium
Follow live coverage as AFC Bournemouth face Leeds United 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:
AFC Bournemouth vs Leeds United
WIDE! After Ayling rises highest on the right side of the Bournemouth box, his nod-down reaches Gnonto, who can only place his own header wide of the left-hand post from close range!

MISS! Outtara and Chrisite combine on the right side of the area, before the latter's cross is stood up invitingly for Billing at the back post. He attempts an ambitious bicycle kick, but barely makes contact and spurns a great chance for Bournemouth to score a third!

Another stray pass from Outtara results in Bournemouth's latest attempted attack fizzling out. Despite already having two goals in the bag, the Cherries have been quite careless in possession inside the final third today.

Rather stiffly, Harrison returns to the action, which has already resumed.
