Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Manchester City 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:

Spurs clear the corner before Walker whips a cross back into the middle from the right flank. It travels over Davies and reaches Grealish, but he cannot keep the loose ball alive.

Lewis heads an offload straight to Emerson, who sends a cross towards Kane. The forward looks to shoot first-time with a left-footed strike, but fails to connect in the middle.

Tottenham will be well aware that City can come back and turn the tables in the second half. The next goal in the contest will be crucial and could well hold the key for Spurs in the game and their bid to reach fourth place.

Harry Kane's record-breaking goal has handed Tottenham a 1-0 lead over Manchester City at the break. Kane struck following good work from Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to notch his 267th goal for Spurs, breaking Jimmy Greaves' all-time record for the club and he also netted his 200th Premier League goal in the process. City came close to a response before half-time when Riyad Mahrez rattled the underside of the bar, but there's work again for the visitors to do against Tottenham after the interval.
