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:

Nottingham Forest vs Crystal Palace

Lingard is offside after receiving the ball from Gibbs-White. He might be happy with the flag going up, with the midfielder missing the target, looking to chip it over the goalkeeper.

Forest's Dean Henderson has conceded more goals than any other goalkeeper in the Premier League this season (30). He's averaging a goal conceded every 42 minutes in the competition this term, compared to an average of one every 97 minutes during his spells at Sheffield United and Manchester United. He has not had to make a save so far.

WIDE! Forest should have a second. Lodi slides it down the left to Gibbs-White who pulls the ball across the box. He finds Johnson who sets it back to Lingard, with the former Manchester United man curling it wide of the post. His head is in his shirt after missing the target.

Olise's corner is cleared away with Forest countering. On the left, Lodi switches the play to Aurier, slowing the attack down with a poor pass. The right-back gets onto the end of the pass, but his cross is blocked.
