Tottenham Hotspur vs Manchester City LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture
Follow live coverage as Tottenham Hotspur face Manchester City 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.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Harry Kane's record-breaking goal was enough to secure a vital 1-0 victory for Tottenham over Manchester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Kane notched his 267th goal for Spurs, surpassing Jimmy Greaves as the club's all-time record goalscorer, along with scoring his 200th in the Premier League. Kane's strike was the decisive moment in the contest as City failed to hit back. Riyad Mahrez came closest, but his effort struck the underside of the bar. Pep Guardiola's men failed to take advantage of Arsenal's defeat on Saturday, leaving the five points off the pace. Tottenham close within a point of Newcastle in fourth as a result of their triumph.
