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.

WIDE! It is not happening for Haaland at the moment. Walker fizzes in a cross towards his number nine, but he cannot direct it towards goal from eight yards out.

Although on the back foot for large periods of that first half, United will be thrilled to go into the break still all square. But the hosts will know they must up their game on the restart.
