Follow live coverage as Norwich City face Chelsea 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:

Chelsea were almost casual then, Mendy and Thiago Silva both nearly caught out...but they weren't and this one is heading to half-time with a whimper.

The thing is, it's almost TOO easy. To the extent that actually it's becoming not a particularly enjoyable watch, the gulf in quality has just been so vast.

Pass, pass, pass - this is fast becoming a training exercise for Chelsea. A third goal would definitely end this one as a contest.

Oooh crikey that was good technique. Another Chelsea corner is this time cleared but only as far as Kovacic, whose half-volley was dangerously close to finding the top-left corner.

There is almost zero sign that Norwich can find a way back into this game...but you just never know, so do stick with this one folks.

There's not a lot of expression from Thomas Tuchel whenever the camera pans to him. Perhaps it's just difficult to gee yourself up when a game is going this comfortably.
