Follow live coverage as Brighton & Hove Albion face Crystal Palace 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:

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Crystal Palace

Palace are running out of time to find a late equaliser here. They're keeping the ball well in front of Brighton, but as they have throughout the match, they're struggling to get it into the box.

WHAT A CHANCE! It's a terrible pass out from Steele and Eze stretches to intercept it on the edge of the box. He touches it to his right to Ahamada as the keeper rushes out, but the Frenchman scuffs at it, sending it well wide.

As we head into nine minutes of stoppage time, Brighton are making their final substitution. March is taken off, with Webster on in his place as they switch to a back five.

CHANCE! Brighton are looking to close this game out and nobody closes Enciso down as he cuts inside from the left. He has a quick glance up before curling a shot towards the far post from the edge of the D, but it flies just wide.

Palace move it quickly upfield and Dunk misses a chance to clear it as it rolls along the edge of the box to Mateta. He hits the shot first time, but Veltman rushes across to block it.

SO CLOSE! Mac Allister thought about playing it backwards, but instead, spun away from Ayew before cutting inside and driving into the box. He hits a low shot towards the near post, and it rolls just wide.
