Follow live coverage as Brentford face Manchester City 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 Manchester City

Brentford are enjoying a very good phase of possession here in the hunt for an equaliser but Manchester City are sitting deep and trying to make it difficult. Brentford make inroads as Mbeumo finds Schade inside the box, but Schade fires a shot wide. It would not have mattered anyway as Schade was just about offside.

Ortega makes a save now! Roerslev fires a shot at goal from the edge of the box, but the City goalkeeper does much better on this occasion to push the effort away and City hurriedly clear the ball and survive yet again.

AKE MAKES A SAVE OFF THE LINE! Ortega comes out to meet a charging Mbeumo on the right side of the area, thus leaving his goal open. Wissa, who is in the middle, wins a pass from Mbeumo and strikes towards goal, but Ake is there to make a superb block! City hang on to their lead but just about and Brentford are looking dangerous since that City goal.

GOAL DISALLOWED FOR OFFSIDE! Damsgaard collects a lovely back pass on the edge of the box and fires home into the bottom corner, but the offside flag is up! VAR took a brief look, but agreed with the on-field decision.
