Follow live coverage as Nottingham Forest face Crystal Palace in the Premier League today.

Manchester City are reigning champions after beating Liverpool to the finish line in a neck-and-neck 2021/22 title race where a comeback win on the final day of the season against Aston Villa secured a fourth title in five years for Pep Guardiola's side.

Jurgen Klopp's Reds were on course for a quadruple last season but were forced to settle for just an FA Cup and Carabao Cup win and will return trying to win the title again just as they did in 2020.

It was a dramatic season for Chelsea a year ago with Roman Abramovich now replaced by Todd Boehly as owner in west London. He will want an instant return on his hefty investment at Stamford Bridge while Tottenham, back in the Champions League, will want to kick on once more too.

It's not all about the action at the top though with Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest promoted to the top tier for 2021/22 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:

Since scoring in consecutive Premier League games in September 2021, Lingard hasn't scored in any of his last 25 appearances in the competition (13 for Man Utd, 12 for Nottingham Forest). Lingard has also never scored in nine Premier League games against Crystal Palace, only facing Manchester City more often without finding the net (11).

WIDE! Forest go close. Gibbs-White slips it down the right to Johnson who is positioned on the right of the box. Driving the ball across the goal, his attempt goes just wide. Lingard slides across trying to turn it into the net, but the ball goes just past his foot and out for a goal-kick.

Loud cheers from the Palace fans. Lingard wins possession off of Doucoure before laying it back to Yates. With men streaming forward, the midfielder looks back at Aurier but gets it wrong. Throw-in to Palace.
