Arsenal vs Manchester City LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Emirates Stadium
Follow live coverage as Arsenal face Manchester City 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:

SAVE! Zinchenko loses his bearings and backheels it straight to De Bruyne. He squares it to De Bruyne, who then pulls it back to Haaland. He takes on the shot from a tight angle, but Ramsdale is right in front of him to smother it.

OFF THE LINE! De Bruyne floats a free-kick to the far post and Rodri stretches to head it towards goal. Ramsdale spills it and it rolls to Akanji, who scuffs a shot first time, but Jorginho is in the right place to clear it off the line.
