The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.

This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.

Meanwhile Luton Town are making their first appearance in the Premier League, having risen from non-league in an incredible decade of progress. They followed Championship winners Burnley and second-placed Sheffield United in earning promotion to the top flight.

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

Palace go into the international break on a streak of 309 minutes without conceding a Premier League goal, and they still sit three points ahead of Forest in the table - occupying a place in the top half. They will return to action against Newcastle United later this month, while Forest host Luton Town.

Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

Although both sides occasionally threatened and enjoyed brief spells of dominance, neither could find an all-important breakthrough, so it ends goalless at Selhurst Park. Gibbs-White struck the post during a tepid first half, while Montiel and Murillo also came close later on, but Nottingham Forest must settle for a single point from their trip to the capital. Crystal Palace's wait for a win over Forest goes on - it's nearly 12 years since their last victory in this fixture.

Mateta's flick-on from a long ball forward only trickles tamely towards Turner, and that could be that - the referee is set to blow the full-time whistle.

Elanga inadvertently slips through Origi, following a smart reverse pass by Domiguez into the area, but Johnstone comes out quickly to smother the ball - that was a close call, but Palace escape!

Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

Play re-starts with a drop ball, and both players are fit to continue for the remainder of this finely-poised game. Can either side now find a late wining goal?

In the first of at least five minutes added on for stoppages, the action is paused again, following a clash of heads between Boly and Andersen deep inside Crystal Palace's area.

SHARP STOP! Johnstone dives to his right, tipping away a curling strike from the edge of the box by Dominguez! Forest are pushing hard for a winner now! That'll be another corner-kick.

Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest

Two Forest corners are cleared away from immediate danger by Crystal Palace, whose attacking intensity has dropped off over the past few minutes. Would a draw be an acceptable result at home for the Eagles?
