The 2023/24 Premier League season is under way and you can follow every game and every goal right here with The Independent.

This year sees Manchester City try to defend their crown and claim a historic fourth title in succession. Pep Guardiola’s all-conquering City, who also won the Champions League and FA Cup last season, will have to see off Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and the rest to claim an unprecedented sixth league title in seven years.

Meanwhile Luton Town are making their first appearance in the Premier League, having risen from non-league in an incredible decade of progress. They followed Championship winners Burnley and second-placed Sheffield United in earning promotion to the top flight.

Follow the latest action from the Premier League below.

West Ham United vs Newcastle United

Burn steals the ball from Antonio deep in Newcastle territory, and despite the home fans' calls for a free-kick, play continues. West Ham continue to lack teeth in attack, so surely Moyes will make some changes soon.

Arriving at the back post, Anderson meets a cross from Trippier, but Coufal intervenes and does just enough to stop the Newcastle man striking cleanly at goal. It's still all Newcastle.

Trippier has provided more assists (12) and created more chances than any other Premier League defender since the start of last season. His five assists so far this term have come in his last three league games.

GOAL STANDS! Isak faced a worrying wait as the VAR analysed his goal for a possible offside, but as the ball came off a West Ham player before he steered it in, the Swedish striker was onside.

SUPER SAVE! Areola dives down low to keep out Burn's close-range header, following a clever stood-up cross by Isak from the right! Great goalkeeping, but what a chance missed!

Newcastle are applying some sustained pressure now, as West Ham resume their deep defensive line. Will this approach get the home side over the line, or can the Magpies eventually break through?
