The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.
This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.
Meanwhile Luton Town are making their first appearance in the Premier League, having risen from non-league in an incredible decade of progress. They followed Championship winners Burnley and second-placed Sheffield United in earning promotion to the top flight.

Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United
For Newcastle, it is the corresponding fixture from last season that provides cause for optimism. Eddie Howe's side came from behind to win 2-1 at the City Ground with a last-gasp Alexander Isak penalty, a second win in a run of eight in nine that carried the Magpies towards Champions League qualification. Isak is also now missing due to injury.
Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United
Struggling Forest are two points above the bottom three and come into this game looking for their first league win of 2024, but they advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup by beating Bristol City on penalties in midweek and have fond memories of facing Newcastle on Boxing Day, running out 3-1 winners courtesy of a hat-trick from Chris Wood. Former Newcastle man Wood is absent here through injury, however.
