Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after a dominant 2020/21 season and Pep Guardiola's side are favourites to win it again boasting as they do one of the best squads in Europe.

European champions Chelsea have proven they have what it takes to dethrone City, however, having done it in last season's Champions League final and will be hoping to add a domestic title to the one won in Porto.

Liverpool were winners back in 2020 ending a 30-year wait for league glory and Jurgen Klopp is sure to have them back challenging again at the sharp end this season too while Manchester United will be looking to be back in the title picture with Cristiano Ronaldo returning to his former club in the summer.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Norwich, Watford and Brentford promoted to the top tier for 2020/21 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Brighton & Hove Albion

Spurs are looking to tighten their grip on fourth place with a win that would take them six points clear of rivals Arsenal, and they come into this game in great form. They've won each of their last four games, scoring 14 times in that run and conceding just twice. Brighton held on to beat Arsenal 2-1 in their last outing, which ended a run of seven games without a win (D1 L6).
