Follow live coverage as Aston Villa face Burnley today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Liverpool look to fend off competition from Arsenal, Manchester City and more.

The race for the Champions League places should also be a compelling battle, with a fifth place possible for English teams. Manchester United’s latest rebuild under Ruben Amorim sets expectations high once more after a dismal season last time out.

Meanwhile, it’s Burnley, Leeds United and Sunderland who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

Aston Villa vs Burnley

Burnley boss Parker has opted to make just one alteration to the team that succumbed to that heavy loss against Man City. It’s a defensive shuffle for the visitors, as Ekdal is replaced by Tuanzebe. Foster is set for his 50th league start for Burnley. The striker scored in three of his first five starts in the Premier League, but has only netted in three of 23 since. The visitors also have injuries, with the likes of Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer, and Connor Roberts all unavailable.
