Southampton vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow all the action from St. Mary's Stadium
Follow live coverage as Southampton face Crystal Palace 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:

Palace twice try to break through in search of a third goal, but Eze just fails to take a one-two into his stride near the penalty spot and Ward then finds his way blocked when unloading a low drive.

Another stoppage in play breaks up the game's momentum, as Guehi goes down injured. There could be plenty of stoppage time at the end of this match.

MISS! With the goal at his mercy, Ayew leans back and sends a 12-yard shot spiralling over the crossbar following Olise's cutback! That would've sealed it for Palace!
