Follow live coverage as West Ham United face Tottenham Hotspur 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:

West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur

Conte’s Tottenham have enjoyed a superb start, winning three of their four games so far and lying third in the league. Should other results go their way, they could end the game on top of the table if they win at the London Stadium.

West Ham United vs Tottenham Hotspur

The Hammers finally climbed off the bottom of their table after picking up their first points of the season last time out, and they’ll be hoping to build on that 1-0 win over Aston Villa against a Spurs side yet to lose a game.
