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:

Anthony does brilliantly to wriggle clear of three blue Tottenham shirts, but when he releases the ball to Rashford, the England striker tumbles in the box and his claims for a penalty are dismissed by the referee.

Tottenham are trying to draw the sting from United's dominant display, and they keep the ball at the back for a while; taking a much-needed breather in the process. They're fairly fortunate to still be level.

Remarkably, Manchester United have had 14 attempts on goal in the opening half-hour; Tottenham have managed just three.

JUST WIDE! Despite the efforts of Bissouma to close him down on the brink of the box, Casemiro zips a purely-hit strike narrowly wide of the left-hand post from 20 yards! That was a great hit with his left foot, but once more, Spurs survive!

After yet another corner for the hosts, Fernandes lets fly from the edge of the box, but sends his shot comfortably over the crossbar. This time, Lloris remains an onlooker.

SPECTACULAR SAVE! Lloris to the rescue again! The Spurs skipper is alert at his near post, denying a powerful Shaw volley, following Dalot's cross to the far post from the right. That could be the best of his series of saves yet!
