The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.
Tottenham Hotspur were beaten by West Ham United in the latest London derby, despite taking an early lead through Cristian Romero’s header. Jarrod Bowen equalised after the break and James Ward-Prowse condemned Spurs to a fourth defeat in five league games with his winner.
Unusually, it’s West Ham who have European commitments this season and Tottenham who do not, after David Moyes’ team triumphed in the Europa Conference League last term amid Tottenham’s domestic struggles.

OFF THE POST! Almost an own-goal by Zouma! Tottenham push for a second goal and the ball is neatly worked out to Lo Celso, who fires it into the six-yard box. Having to cut it out, a sliding Zouma sees the ball ricochet off him and onto the left post with Fabianski beaten.
