Brentford vs Manchester City LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow all the action from Gtech Community Stadium
Follow live coverage as Brentford 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:

Raya hooks it long upfield once more and Ghoddos gives chase, leaping high to bring it down. He fouls Laporte in the process though, and City are back in possession.

The Brentford fans aren't happy with the time that City are taking over a throw-in, despite the visitors losing. When Walker finally does take it, they patiently work it back upfield, but Brentford are still standing firm.

BLOCK! Mahrez switches it out to Gomez on the left and he cushions a header down for Palmer. His first shot is blocked by Pinnock, but it's played back to the youngster again. His second attempt hits Lewis and the third is deflected wide for a corner.
