Follow live coverage as Aston Villa face AFC Bournemouth 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:

Bournemouth respond with a long throw of their own, but Onana rises well to head it clear. As the ball drops, there’s a nasty clash of heads between two Bournemouth players – Adams and Smith. Play briefly continues, with the Cherries managing to get a shot away before the flag eventually goes up. It’s all happening here, but the main concern is for the two players on the ground. The medical team have rushed onto the pitch straight away. Let’s hope both are able to continue.
