West Ham United vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from London Stadium
Follow live coverage as West Ham United 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.

CHANCE GONE! Zaha finds Eze in the box and slides it down the left. With a shooting opportunity, he fails to control the ball. It rolls out for a goal-kick.
West Ham United vs Crystal Palace
Great defending from Kehrer. Eze gets inside the box down the right looking to beat the German, but he is nudged off of it. He thinks he should have a penalty, but the referee is having none of it.
West Ham United vs Crystal Palace
Not a lot of action to speak of in the last few minutes. Lanzini goes long towards Paqueta, but he puts too much height on it and it goes straight to Guaita.

Substitution for West Ham. Benrahma is replaced by Lanzini. The fans did not seem to be happy with the decision.
