Follow live coverage as Brentford face Ipswich Town 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:

Brentford vs Ipswich Town

Szmodics also leaves the pitch, with his goal feeling like a lifetime ago. He has struggled to get into the game since his only involvement. Jack Clarke comes on to replace him.

Woolfenden comes into the action to replace Chaplin, who has had a tough game as captain. This is the first of three Ipswich changes.

Damsgaard strikes the resulting free-kick just over the bar! They claim a touch from Muric, but a goal-kick is given.

WHAT A CHANCE! Wissa misses a chance to get his hat trick! He was played in on goal by Damsgaard and only had Muric to beat, but the goalkeeper stood tall and denied him!

Janelt goes in on Chaplin with a rather strong tackle right in front of the referee, on the centre circle. No yellow card was given, but it was a very close call.

CLOSE! More great work by Lewis-Potter on the left side as he cuts inside and curls a cross to the back post. Norgaard meets it but can’t direct his header goalward, and it goes out for a goal-kick.

Brentford vs Ipswich Town

Brentford have swung the possession back to them again, and they are putting a lot of pressure on the Ipswich midfield and defence as they search for an insurance goal.

CHANCE! The ball drops the Lewis-Potter right in front of the goal, with only a couple of bodies to beat. He struggles to get the ball out of his feet, and the resulting shot is poor. What a chance to put his side further ahead.

Brentford vs Ipswich Town

Clarke does well against Lewis-Potter, minutes after conceding the penalty that put Brentford ahead. He also has an own goal to his name from this game, so he will regain some confidence from that duel.
