Follow live coverage as Burnley face Everton in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after a dominant 2020/21 season and Pep Guardiola's side are favourites to win it again boasting as they do one of the best squads in Europe.

European champions Chelsea have proven they have what it takes to dethrone City, however, having done it in last season's Champions League final and will be hoping to add a domestic title to the one won in Porto.

Liverpool were winners back in 2020 ending a 30-year wait for league glory and Jurgen Klopp is sure to have them back challenging again at the sharp end this season too while Manchester United will be looking to be back in the title picture with Cristiano Ronaldo returning to his former club in the summer.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Norwich, Watford and Brentford promoted to the top tier for 2020/21 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:

That late win sees Burnley close in to within a point of Everton, with the Clarets rising to 18th, the final relegation place. Everton are in real danger of crossing that red line into the relegation zone, and with Chelsea, Manchester United and local rival Liverpool still to play, it's looking bleak for the Toffees as the season's end closes in.

Cornet set up the game's first goal and scored it's winner, finishing with two shots on target, two key passes and two crosses. Where it mattered, and when it mattered, he shone through, and there's a reason he's seen by many as Burnley's key player.

WIDE!!!! A bouncing ball falls to Calvert-Lewin, who flicks it up to Rondon. He hits it first time, but with Pope rooted to the spot, drags his volley just inches wide of the post!
