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.

Liverpool vs Manchester United

Salah bursts down the right before rolling through for Gomez, who blasts into the side-netting. Of course, Liverpool would have much preferred that to have been Alexander-Arnold in that position!

HANDBALL?! The Anfield crowd are adamant they should have a penalty as Tsimikas' left-wing cross bounces up and catches the arm of Shaw. The United left-back was unsighted by a jumping Konate and the referee, in agreement with the VAR, waves play on.

Salah releases Gakpo but the former PSV forward smashes a right-footed strike straight at Varane, who deflects behind for a corner on the right flank. Can Liverpool finally make a set-piece chance count?

Liverpool vs Manchester United

Liverpool have won all seven of their Premier League games at Anfield this season, only in 2019-20 (first 17) have the Reds began a Premier League campaign with a longer home winning run. Klopp’s side are also averaging three goals per game at home in the league this term (21 goals), their most in a single season in the competition, but have struggled to break past this United defence somehow.

Gomez lets fly with a rocketed right-footed strike that hits Shaw before Endo fails to find Gakpo and passes out of play. That pause will allow United to make two more changes.

The tension is palpable inside Anfield as Antony beats Alexander-Arnold before his low cross finds Rashford, who cannot find space to test Alisson. United still look a threat on the counter-attack with this game far from over for both sides.

An 11th corner of the game comes for Liverpool on the left-hand side. Tsimikas delivers but Van Dijk's header is never troubling Onana.
