Fulham vs Southampton LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Craven Cottage
Follow live coverage as Fulham face Southampton today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

SAVE! Off a second corner, Traore delivers a brilliant cross from the right flank into the danger area. It falls to Wilson, whose first-time shot from a couple of yards out is blocked by Ramsdale, who shows great reflexes to stretch high.

Jimenez does well to use his pace and strength to get to the edge of the box, before his attempt is blocked and goes behind for a Fulham corner.

Traore's pace already troubles the Saints! Traore gets forward to the right byline and then delivers a high cross towards Iwobi to head towards goal, but Iwobi's effort from close-range is not very powerful and is collected easily by Ramsdale.

Fulham make their first change of the game as Jimenez comes on for Muniz.

Corner for Southampton! Sugawara gets to the edge of the box from the right flank but his attempted cross is blocked behind for a corner. Fulham make a crucial block from the resulting corner as Sugawara's attempt was heading towards goal if not for that good piece of defending.

Another Robinson cross from the left finds its way towards the centre of the box, but Bednarek is there yet again to quickly snuff out of the danger and clear the threat. Bednarek has been very good today and has made a massive contribution in Southampton still being on level terms in this game.

Southampton register their first shot on target. They launch a counter-attack and send Armstrong through. He takes a swipe at it with a low effort that is well hit, but it goes straight to Leno, who did not have to work hard to make that save.

Ramsdale forced to make another save! Robinson delivers a loopy ball from the left and Ramsdale does well to get his fingertips to the cross heading towards the top corner. The Southampton defence and alert to it and clear their lines quickly before a Fulham player could get to the ball.
