Follow live coverage as Brighton & Hove Albion face Wolverhampton Wanderers today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.

The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.

Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town 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:

Inches away from Strand Larsen. An enticing cross is sent in but the striker can't get his foot on it and Estupinan knocks it out for a corner.

This is definitely more of a defensive change. Rutter, who has been one of Brighton's starmen today, leaves the pitch for Lamptey. The full-back still offers an attacking threat but his main role right now will be securing the lead.

Well, this could be an opportunity for Brighton to just kill Wolves' late flurry. Subs are coming on with Baleba making way for Wieffer.

A really busy couple of minutes for Brighton's defence but that pressure is just relieved for the moment as Estupinan shields the ball out of play.

Strand Larsen has become a real threat in this half. Cunha delivers a floated cross that lands directly on the Norweigan's head. He can't get enough power to beat Verbruggen who dives low to stop him.

Well the man who is the difference maker so far is coming off. Welbeck gets a standing ovation and Ferguson is on.

Some fresh legs coming on for Brighton. Kadioglu has been lively and is replaced by Gruda.

Ah no the free-kick goes out for a corner. It was a good header from Strand Larsen but goes out via a defender.

Igor is punished for a late challenge and gives a free-kick away in a really dangerous position. He sees a yellow given to him but with how Wolves have been at set-pieces there could be an even bigger worry.
