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.

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

Fulham vs Luton Town

Luton have had a tough start to life in the Premier League and are one of two teams yet to register a point. The Hatters began their campaign with two away fixtures because of developments to Kenilworth Road, with Rob Edwards' side losing by three goals to Brighton and Hove Albion and Chelsea. They then welcomed West Ham before the international break, looking to make an impression in front of their home fans, but lost 2-1. Jarrod Bowen and Kurt Zouma put the visitors in a commanding position, with Mads Andersen scoring a consolation in stoppage time. Luton will want to avoid making unwanted history today, as they have only lost their first four fixtures on two occasions (1927-28 and 2002-03, both in the third tier).

Fulham vs Luton Town

Fulham have collected four points from their opening four games in the Premier League and are still searching for their first home win of the new campaign. Marco Silva’s men opened the season with an away win over Everton but were thrashed by Brentford and Manchester City either side of a draw with Arsenal. Despite the poor run of results, the Cottagers will have been boosted by the news of midfielders Joao Palhinha & Harrison Reed signing new contracts. The hosts are also unbeaten in their last five games versus Luton (winning three and drawing two), triumphing in both of their home matches in that run (3-2 in October 2019, 7-0 in May 2022).
