Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Old Trafford
Follow live coverage as Manchester United face Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League today.
Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.
It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.
It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 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:

SAVE! At his near post, De Gea has to palm away a drive from a tight angle by Kane, which rolls back into a dangerous area. Dalot then blocks the follow-up; sustaining an injury in the process. There's another break in play while he receives treatment.

A rare spell of Spurs possession follows the stoppage in play, as the visitors attempt to see the scoreline remain blank through to half-time. They've withstood plenty of pressure so far.

Following an assessment from the medics, Dier is cleared to continue. The game resumes with a drop-ball, which is placed at the feet of Martinez deep inside the Spurs half.

Having taken the ball flush in the face from a powerful Rashford strike, Dier is lying flat out on the turf and will require some medical attention. This breathless encounter therefore takes a rare pause.
