The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.

This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.

Meanwhile Luton Town are making their first appearance in the Premier League, having risen from non-league in an incredible decade of progress. They followed Championship winners Burnley and second-placed Sheffield United in earning promotion to the top flight.

Palace’s most recent result was more positive than today’s opponents, beating Sheffield United 3-2 at Selhurst Park. The Eagles have won two of their last three Premier League matches (L1), as many as in their previous 15 league games combined (D5 L8). Roy Hodgson’s side have struggled so far this season and find themselves just six points above the relegation zone, but a victory today could see them climb to 12th position in the Premier League. Michael Olise has been directly involved in at least one goal in each of his last five Premier League appearances for Crystal Palace (5 goals, 3 assists), so Palace fans will be disappointed to see him starting from the bench.

Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi will be desperate to see his side bounce back after one of their most disappointing performances of the season last time out. The Seagulls were defeated 4-0 by Premier League strugglers Luton Town away from home, but they are back at the Amex Stadium for today’s game. Brighton are unbeaten in their last nine fixtures on their own turf (W4 D5), which is their longest run without defeat since 2017. De Zerbi’s men failed to score in January from a total of 42 shots in the Premier League.
