Manchester City are the defending champions, having won their fifth Premier League title during the previous season.
This season saw the return of full attendance, after the final third of the 2019–20 and the entirety of the 2020–21 seasons were held with limited or no attendance due to the restrictions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] This season will be the second season to feature a mid-season break, with no Premier League matches scheduled between 23 January and 7 February 2022.[6]
In December 2021, multiple matches were postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreaks in multiple clubs, with many clubs calling for the league to shut down until 2022.[7] Following a meeting on 20 December involving all 20 Premier League clubs, a decision was made to fulfil the fixtures over the Christmas period "where it is safe to do so". Clubs were advised that if they have 13 fit players, plus a goalkeeper, then they should fulfil their fixtures.[8]
Teams
Twenty teams are competing in the league – the top seventeen teams from the previous season and the three teams promoted from the Championship. The promoted teams are Norwich City, Watford (who both return to the top flight after a year's absence) and Brentford (who return to the top flight after a 74-year absence). This is also Brentford's first season in the Premier League.[9] They replaced Fulham, West Bromwich Albion (both teams relegated after only a year back in the top flight) and Sheffield United (relegated after just two years back in the top flight).

Personnel and kits
- a.^ Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was club captain at Arsenal until 14 December 2021, when he was stripped of the captaincy following a disciplinary breach;[63] he was later let go by the club on 1 February. Alexandre Lacazette served as the de facto captain until early February,[64] when he was officially named to the role.[65]
- b.^ Troy Deeney was club captain at Watford at the start of the season, but left the club on 30 August. While a replacement captain has not yet been formally named by the club, Moussa Sissoko has been the de facto captain.
- c. ^ Three and Hyundai suspended their sponsorships of Chelsea in response to sanctions imposed on the club and Roman Abramovich following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[66] The former does however remain on the club's shirt and will at least until a new kit is released the following season. Should the sponsorship be put back on hold, Three will remain Chelsea's shirt sponsor.
