Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Nottingham Forest 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:
Crystal Palace FC 1 - 1 Nottingham Forest FC
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
16:03Gibbs-White catches Esse as he attempts to jink his way inside to start an attack for Palace. He's rather fortunate to get away without a yellow card on that occasion.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
16:03Palace are beginning to build some pressure again and are getting a foothold in the game once more. Esse has made a positive contribution off the bench, but they are yet to create a clear-cut opportunity in the second 45.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
16:01A foul is called after Hughes tackles McAtee. He is livid with the decision and replays show that he got a chunk of the ball when he went in for the challenge. It leads to the ex-Man City man overhitting a cross.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
16:02It's honours even at Selhurst Park as Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest draw 1-1. Palace were the better side in the first half and took the lead through a Sarr finish in the box following good work from Munoz. They nearly doubled their advantage as Guehi struck the post from a free-kick. Forest improved after the break and got their equaliser as Hudson-Odoi powered through the Palace defence to score. The visitors finished the stronger of the two sides and nearly won the match at the death, with Jesus striking the post and Hutchinson inches away from a winner on his debut, but he scooped an effort over. Palace generated an xG of 0.78 to Forest's 0.90. Glasner's men now must prepare for thier second leg of the Conference League away to Fredrikstad, while Forest are at home to West Ham in the Premier League next weekend. That's all from me, thank you and goodbye!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:57FULL-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 1-1 NOTTINGHAM FOREST
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:56ANOTHER CHANCE TO WIN IT! Hutchinson is found in the area but he scoops his effort over the bar! Nuno is incandescent on the touchline!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:55MORE DRAMA IN INJURY TIME! Palace want a penalty after Sarr goes down in the area under the challenge of Murillo but the flag is already up for offside.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:54SO CLOSE TO A WINNER! Jesus is picked out in space and his effort from inside the box strikes the far post! McAtee then plays in Hutchinson on the right but he can only fire a shot over the crossbar.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:51Murillo is booked for a wild tackle on Edouard. That was a pretty needless challenge from the Brazilian.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:50There will be five minutes of injury time at Selhurst Park. Plenty of time for either side to find a winner.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:47Edouard comes on in place of Mateta for Palace.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:47Wood comes off for Jesus, as Nuno makes his final change of the day.

15:47Forest make another change as Yates comes on for Sangare.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:46Hughes is given a yellow card for pulling McAtee back after Forest attacked with numbers on the counter-attack.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:46Nuno's changes seem to have had the desired effect, with Forest back on the ball and probing as we approach the final five minutes of normal time. McAtee has looked bright since coming on.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:43There will be a stoppage in play after a clash of heads between Hughes and Williams. The Forest player looks in some discomfort after the collision and is receiving treatment.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:41Lerma replaces Wharton in the middle of the park for the home side.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:41Gibbs-White is replaced by Hutchinson for the final 10 minutes, who is also making his Forest debut.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:38Anderson has made the most line-breaking passes in the final third in the Premier League so far this season (16), while no midfielder has made more total line-breaking passes than the Forest man (20 - level with Martin Zubimendi, Moises Caicedo and Nico Gonzalez). England boss Thomas Tuchel is at the match today and he will surely have been impressed with his display.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:36Forest are beginning to turn the screw now as Gibbs-White flicks a header into the path of Wood, who is clean through, but Henderson makes a fine stop from close range. The flag is up for offside, but the away side are enjoying their best spell of the match so far.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:35Sels is booked for taking too long over a restart. He's unhappy with the decision but it stands - a curious one with Forest a goal down!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:34Astonishingly, Forest are winless in their last 51 Premier League matches when trailing at half-time. This run stretches all the way back to January 1997, when they came from 1-0 down at the break to defeat Tottenham Hotspur. The second half is coming right up.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:34Crystal Palace lead Nottingham Forest 1-0 at the break, in a game that has taken on a grudge-match feel after Forest replaced Palace in the Europa League earlier this month. The first 30 minutes saw both sides carry a threat with half-chances for each, but the home side went up a gear after that and took the lead through Sarr, who was picked out by Munoz for a simple finish. They went close to a second on the stroke of half-time but Guehi hit the post with a header from a free-kick. Palace have created an xG worth 0.66 compared to 0.27 for Forest.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:33Another opportunity for Palace as Mitchell keeps the ball alive for the home side and tees up Hughes on the edge of the area, but his looping strike is always missing the target. The home side are completely on top as we approach the end of the first half.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:33Munoz gets the assist as he found Sarr in the penalty area with a pinpoint cross. Palace are good value for their lead.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:33GOOOALLLL!!!!! PALACE LEAD! It's well-worked as Wharton sprays a pass out to Munoz on the right, and he picks out the unmarked Sarr in the penalty area, who makes no mistake with a finish that bounces into the turf and past Sels. Crystal Palace 1-0 Nottingham Forest!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:32Palace continue to pen Forest inside their area and win a corner, with Hughes' delivery met by Lacroix, but he can't generate the power on the header and Sels can make a comfortable stop.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:31Palace test Sels properly for the first time today as Hughes feeds a ball in for Mateta in space, with the striker letting fly from just outside the area, but the goalkeeper is equal to it and pushes the ball away from danger.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:30McAtee also makes his maiden Forest bow, coming on for the dangerous Hudson-Odoi.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:30Kalimuendo makes his Forest debut as he comes on in place of Ndoye.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:31Ndoye attempts to beat Munoz inside the penalty area but the wing-back makes a fine challenge and the ball then deflects back onto the winger, with Palace being awarded the goal-kick. It's been another fine display from the Colombian.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:27Aina is booked for stopping a short free-kick from being taken. Palace have stemmed the tide for now.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:27Ndoye is the first Nottingham Forest player since Geoff Thomas in 1998 to either score or assist in each of his first two Premier League appearances for the club, with one goal and one assist so far.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:25Palace make their first sub of the day as the ineffectual Devenny is replaced by Esse.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:24Inside the last 30 minutes of this match and we're set for an intriguing finish to this one. Palace just need to reassert their authority, especially in midfield. Wharton was pulliing the strings in the first half but he's struggling to influence the game right now.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:21That was Hudson-Odoi's first Premier League goal since scoring the winner against Man City in March, ending a run of eight games without a goal. He took it well considering he was on a bit of a drought in front of goal.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:18It's a superb pass from Ndoye to creat the goal. It looked like it may have been meant for Wood initially, but Hudson-Odoi certainly made the most of it.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:17GOOALLL!!!! Out of nowhere Nottingham Forest are level! It's a poor goal from Palace's point of view as Hudson-Odoi beats Mitchell for pace to latch on to a through pass and his strike goes through Henderson and into the back of the net! Crystal Palace 1-1 Nottingham Forest.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:15A half-chance for Hughes as he is first onto a header cleared out of the Forest area but he can't keep the strike down and his shot blazes over the crossbar from distance.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:13Now it's Mitchell's turn to receive the same punishment after he takes a while to take the throw. Anthony Taylor is certainly making an impression at the start of the second 45.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:12We're just over five minutes into the second 45 and Forest are enjoying a spell of possession without doing anything truly productive with it. Palace seem content and compact in their defensive shape.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:10Crystal Palace have lost one of their last 30 home Premier League games when leading at half-time, winning 24 of them, since a 3-1 loss to Chelsea in February 2024.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:07The visitors apply some early pressure in the second half and win two corners but Palace are able to deal with the threat accordingly.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
15:06Forest get the second half underway. No changes from either side.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:50HALF-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 1-0 NOTTINGHAM FOREST
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:50CLOSE! Palace win a free-kick on the edge of the area after Sarr is fouled by Anderson. Wharton curls in a teasing cross for Guehi at the back post but his header strikes the post! So close to a two goal advantage!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:48There will be one minute of added time for the first half.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:46Since the start of 2023-24, Munoz is one of only five defenders with 10+ Premier League assists, along with Antonee Robinson (16), Kieran Trippier (13), Pedro Porro (13) and Trent Alexander-Arnold (10).
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:42Palace have continued dominating possession in the two minutes after they scored the opener. Forest have carried a threat going forward but Anderson and Sangare are losing the midfield battle at the moment and struggling to get a foothold in the match.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:38Mateta waits in the middle as Mitchell supplies a cross but Milenkovic is equal to it. He's already made a key number of headers and interceptions to help Nuno's side so far.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:37A half-chance is spurned as Wood knocks back a long cross into the path of Gibbs-White to strike from just inside the area, but he can't keep the shot down on the half-volley and skies it.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:36As well as being the only Palace player to create a chance today, Hughes is their only player to maintain a 100% pass accuracy so far with 13 passes out of 13. He's being booed by the Forest fans due to his Derby connections but he's made a fine start to this encounter.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:29Palace just seem to be upping the tempo as the ball is played out to Mitchell in space but his first time cross is cleared away by the outstretched foot of Milenkovic. Better from the home side.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:26Selz is called into action to keep out a deflected cross from Munoz at his near post but the flag is up as the ball had already gone out of play.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:24Lacroix receives the first booking of the game for tripping up Gibbs-White as he sought to advance forward with the ball.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:25Wood has scored more Premier League goals (91) than the Palace starting XI have managed combined (79). He had his early chance but has been quiet since then.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:23Forest are unchanged from the side that defeated Brentford last week. New signings Luiz, McAtee, Kalimuendo and Hutchinson all start on the bench and could make their debuts.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:23Nottingham Forest began the season with a 3-1 victory over Brentford at the City Ground. Chris Wood picked up from where he left off last season as he helped himself to a brace as Forest ran out comfortable winners on the opening weekend. However, this week has been marred by manager Nuno Espirito Santo admitting that his relationship with owner Evangelos Marinakis is not what it used to be. Nuno's position going forward is unclear, but he takes charge of his side for the trip to Selhurst Park.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:23Crystal Palace put in a fine display on the opening weekend as they came away from Stamford Bridge with a 1-1 draw at Chelsea. They began their European adventure in midweek with a 1-0 win over Fredrikstad in the first leg of their Conference League qualifier. This will be their first match since the departure of England international Eberechi Eze after he completed a move to Arsenal a day earlier.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:23Anderson frees up Hudson-Odoi on the left who closes in on goal, but his low strike is deflected against Richards and away from danger. There has been space for the away side to exploit so far but their wingers haven't particularly made the most of it.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:20Among managers to take charge of 10+ top-flight games for Nottingham Forest, only Brian Clough (44%) has a higher win ratio than Nuno Espírito Santo (43%). He will hope to get a second league win of the season this afternoon.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:20Forest enjoy a bit of sustained pressure as the ball is swept to the right flank for Ndoye to take on Mitchell, but his deflected cross is straight into the hands of Henderson.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:14It's a bit end to end at the moment, with Palace offering plenty going forward but Forest also look dangerous when they hit the home side on the counter attack.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:11Forest win the first corner of the match after a fine Aina run and cross is met by the head of Richards. Lacroix clears the danger and any pressure is lifted after Sangare blazes a volley over the crossbar.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:10Mateta frees up Sarr down the right, who takes on Sangare, but his cross has too much on it and can't reach Devenny inside the area. It's been a decent start from both sides here.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:07Forest create their first chance of the match as Gibbs-White does well to beat Mitchell to the ball and supply a cross for Wood but his volleyed effort is off target.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:05Mitchell seems to be having trouble with a long ball over the top, as Wood lurks behind, but he outmuscles the New Zealander and clears the ball away to fine applause from the home crowd.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:05Devenny becomes the 40th Northern Irish player to reach 25 Premier League appearances and the 10th of those to do so aged 21 or younger. He will operate alongside Sarr in the inside forward positions.
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:02Palace get the match underway!
Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest
14:01The players are out on the pitch and kick-off is just moments away!
