Follow all the action from Goodison Park
Follow live coverage as Everton 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:

GOOOAAAAALLLL!!!! McNeil is standing over the free-kick, and he floats it to the back post. Tarkowski stays onside and rises above his marker, and he powers a header into the bottom corner!

It's Wolves who have enjoyed a brighter start in this one and are getting in behind the Everton defence with relative ease. Cunha now pounces on a loose ball just outside the penalty area and strikes towards the bottom corner, but Pickford makes a smart stop.
