Follow live coverage as Leicester City face Norwich City in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after a dominant 2020/21 season and Pep Guardiola's side are favourites to win it again boasting as they do one of the best squads in Europe.

European champions Chelsea have proven they have what it takes to dethrone City, however, having done it in last season's Champions League final and will be hoping to add a domestic title to the one won in Porto.

Liverpool were winners back in 2020 ending a 30-year wait for league glory and Jurgen Klopp is sure to have them back challenging again at the sharp end this season too while Manchester United will be looking to be back in the title picture with Cristiano Ronaldo returning to his former club in the summer.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Norwich, Watford and Brentford promoted to the top tier for 2020/21 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:

Leicester City vs Norwich City

Leicester can be confident in their last few games of snatching a top-half finish from an indifferent season. For Norwich, there are only two games of this nightmare campaign left for them to endure. That's all for now. Goodbye!

Leicester City vs Norwich City

Leicester are worthy winners of this game in the end. They had 20 shots to Norwich's eight and were on top throughout. They rise to 10th in the Premier League table. Norwich stay bottom, having lost their last five games in a row. They've failed to score a goal in their last four. They're just not good enough at this level.

Leicester City vs Norwich City

Leicester have strolled to an easy win over Norwich. Two second-half goals from Vardy put an end to Norwich's resistance before Maddison added his name to the scoresheet. Norwich gave Schmeichel some work to do in the first half but offered close to nothing after that.

Leicester succeed in getting rid of the corner after a few attempts. Giannoulis tugs down Maddison to let the hosts escape. Only one more minute of this.

Leicester City vs Norwich City

Aarons tries to cut the ball back for Pukki from the throw-in, but Evans is well-placed to get to it first. Norwich do get a corner though.

Aarons' cross is blocked. Norwich keep possession and Placheta forces a throw-in down the right. It's the first time Norwich have given Leicester anything to worry about defensively for a while.

Rowe's muscled off the ball by Tielemans near the halfway line. At least Norwich have been able to give some of their younger players a runout.

Leicester City vs Norwich City

Vardy's unlucky not to get his hat-trick as he chases a bad pass back to Gunn. The keeper whacks his clearance against the Leicester man and is relieved to see the ball bounce wide for a goal-kick.
