West Ham United vs Leeds United LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow all the action from London Stadium
Follow live coverage as West Ham United face Leeds United 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.

Sam Allardyce keeps faith in Patrick Bamford to lead the line for the Peacocks, despite the striker missing a crucial penalty against Newcastle that would’ve put Leeds 2-0 up at Elland Road. Junior Firpo was shown a red card late in that match and is replaced by Pascal Struijk, while Adam Forshaw starts in place of Sam Greenwood.

David Moyes has made six changes to the Hammers side that defeated AZ Alkmaar to reach the Europa Conference League final, with Danny Ings spearheading the attack in place of Michail Antonio. Lukasz Fabianski also returns between the sticks, but captain Declan Rice, who could well be leading the side out for the last time at the London Stadium, retains his place in midfield alongside Tomas Soucek.
