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.

Newcastle United vs AFC Bournemouth

Trippier's inswinging corner from the right is headed away by Semenyo as far as Gordon, who lashes a first-time effort towards the goal from just outside the box. The ball takes a few deflections before falling to Almiron, but he pokes his effort wide of the right post.

Howe has faced Bournemouth three times in the Premier League since leaving them, and is winless in all three (drawing two and losing one). Indeed, Newcastle managers have won just one of their last 13 Premier League matches against teams they have previously managed (drawing four and losing eight), a 3-0 win for Rafael Benítez against Chelsea in May 2018.

Barnes is involved for the first time as he drives inside from the left to work a shooting opportunity on his right foot. The former Leicester City man gets to the edge of the box, but his curling effort goes well wide.

HUGE SAVE! Bournemouth have another chance to break the deadlock. Cook has possession around the halfway line and plays a fantastic throughball behind Botman and into the feet of Kluivert. He rushes down the right side of the box and cuts the ball across to Solanke, but his right-footed effort is pushed away by Dubravka.

SAVE! Tavernier has the ball outside of Newcastle's box and is not put under any pressure. He tries his luck from a distance with a low right-footed drive, but his effort is saved by Dubravka down to his left.

Some really nice play by Bournemouth in Newcastle's half. Tavernier sends a backheel to Solanke, who drives towards the box before finding Semenyo on the right. He assesses his options and rolls a pass through to Smith, who sees his cross turned behind by Burn. However, the corner comes to nothing.

Tavernier is walking off the pitch slowly after receiving treatment. Sinisterra was getting warm off the pitch just in case he was needed, but Tavernier can continue. Newcastle show their sportsmanship and give Bournemouth the ball back.

The ball is cleared off the pitch by Neto, with Tavernier on the floor just inside Newcastle's half. He landed awkwardly after jumping for the ball in the air and needs treatment.

Neto gets lucky. He collects a pass inside the Bournemouth box and takes a long time to release the ball. Gordon rushes towards him and blocks the clearance, with the ball going wide of the right post. That could've been an embarrassing moment for the Brazilian.

CHANCE! Bournemouth go close this time. Semenyo bursts down the right and touches the ball just ahead of Burn before curling a low cross into the box. However, it is just ahead of Solanke and Kluivert, who cannot get across quickly enough to turn it in.
