Follow all the action from Molineux Stadium
Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Crystal Palace 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:

Oliver Glasner, similarly to his counterpart, will be disappointed with how his side has begun their domestic season. Crystal Palace sit 17th in the Premier League but have shown their quality at times, even when they hadn’t picked up a result. They recently ended their winless start to the season against Tottenham Hotspur and have also drawn against Manchester United and Chelsea, keeping their heads above water at the bottom of the table. Crystal Palace will see this as a theoretical 'six-pointer’ and a chance to pull away from the relegation zone and start looking up the table rather than down.

Gary O’Neil’s team has started the Premier League campaign in a bad way; he will be disappointed with the fact that his side is still without a win so far. They have only picked up two points from a possible 27 and sit 20th in the league. Wolves have had a tough run of fixtures to begin this campaign and have shown their ability to score goals, but they need to pick up their first win soon. Wolves will see this game as an opportunity to get their first win of the season against a side who were in a similar position only last week.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Crystal Palace
The last time that these sides faced each other in the Premier League, Crystal Palace took all three points in a 3-1 away win in May. Since then, they have been inconsistent during the start of the Premier League season and find themselves only two points above the relegation zone. In other head-to-head meetings, Palace remain on top, winning eight of the 14 games against Wolves. Both teams are currently battling at the bottom of the Premier League table, so we can expect a fixture where both sides are hungry for three points.
