Follow all the action from King Power Stadium
Follow live coverage as Leicester City face Tottenham Hotspur 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:

Owing to Bentancur's injury, there will be nine additional minutes at the King Power. Can either side find a late winner? We're about to find out as an enticing finale awaits.
Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
Mavididi's left-wing run ends in almost finding Ndidi, but a late challenge from Bergvall stops the chance. Leicester have all of the pace on the wings, and don't rule out a late counter-attacking winner.
Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
In Gray and Bergvall, this is the first time that Tottenham have used two players aged 18 or younger in a Premier League game since August 2007 against Manchester United (Gareth Bale and Adel Taarabt). Can one of those youngsters prove the unlikely hero here?
Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
OVER! It's almost the perfect introduction for McAteer. Winks swings a deep free-kick towards the far post, where the winger heads just over with his first touch of the match. Somehow, Romero was beaten to the ball there, and Postecoglou may not be impressed with that defending.
Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
De Cordova-Reid has now failed to score in any of his eight Premier League meetings with Tottenham, the most games he has played against an opponent in the competition without finding the back of the net. His debut comes to an end as McAteer is sent on by Cooper.

A slight opening arrives as Son's left-wing delivery is touched back by Solanke before Bergvall sees an effort blocked. Hermansen takes the ball into his hands, and Leicester appear set to make another change, with McAteer readying himself on the touchline.

Bergvall's left-sided corner goes all the way through the Leicester backline, and fails to find a team-mate too. Justin hooks long up the pitch and the Foxes retreat back into their defensive shape.

Intricate football from Spurs almost sees the visitors find a way through the Leicester defence. Kulusevski's final pass is a little too heavy for Son, though, and Justin prods behind for a corner.
Leicester City vs Tottenham Hotspur
Romero wins a Spurs throw-in on the right-hand side, with the centre-back still seemingly fuming after exchanging words with Vardy on his way off. The Tottenham defender will hope to have the last laugh.
