Follow all the action from Elland Road
Follow live coverage as Leeds United face Manchester City 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’re unlikely to see another 7-0, but given that City are halfway between Champions League semi-final legs, and have been knocked off top spot in the league by Liverpool, Pep Guardiola’s side will be fully focused on not slipping up in this match, to a Leeds side that beat them 2-1 at a similar stage last season.
Leeds United vs Manchester City
They’re still far from safe from the relegation fight, but 16th-placed Leeds are unbeaten in five, and have tightened up at the back under Jesse Marsch. That’s just as well, particularly considering the thumping City gave them earlier this season.
