Follow all the action from Selhurst Park
Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Newcastle United today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

In a reversal of the first hour, Palace had 65% possession between the 60th and 75th minutes. The Eagles are definitely in the ascendancy at Selhurst Park, but they need just one more gilt-edged chance.

Crystal Palace have now fired in 12 attempts compared to just two for Newcastle, but they still trail and are running out of time to salvage something from this match. Perhaps Nketiah could be introduced at some stage.
