Follow live coverage as Chelsea face Nottingham Forest 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:

Gallagher sneaks up behind Mangala to win Chelsea the ball back, and immediately receives it from Kovacic's pass. Awoniyi looks to reclaim possession though, and barges the midfielder to ground to concede another free-kick. It's been stop-start to say the least, so far.

Awoniyi barges Badiashile off the ball to come up with possession in the final third for Forest, but he's judged to have done so too aggressively by the referee and the free-kick goes Chelsea's way.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

Chelsea have lost at home against a promoted side in each of their last two Premier League campaigns, going down 5-2 to West Brom in 2020-21 and 4-1 against Brentford last season. They'd only lost at home to a promoted club in three of the first 28 campaigns of the competition (1994-95 v Nottingham Forest, 2000-01 v Charlton and 2015-16 v Bournemouth). Bogie.
