Follow live coverage as Leeds United face Brighton & Hove Albion 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:

Leeds United vs Brighton & Hove Albion

Leeds' Premier League survival is now out of their own hands, but a win today will see them move out of the relegation zone. Burnley and Everton still have a game in hand over them though. Leeds go into their final home game of the season needing a win to stay in touch with those sides. They've lost each of their last three matches, conceding nine goals in the process, which has made their already poor goal difference even worse. As for Brighton, they come into this game in good form having lost just one of their last seven outings (W4 D2), including a 4-0 thrashing of Manchester United last Saturday.
