Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Newcastle United LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Eddie Howe’s team are unbeaten but head to Molineux to face a more attack-minded Wolves team
Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Newcastle United in the Premier League today.
It hasn’t been a good start to the campaign for the hosts in terms of points accrued, but Bruno Lage might be pleased by some of their displays despite taking a point from three games - and having scored only once. There were signs of fine link play between Goncalo Guedes, Matheus Nunes and Pedro Neto at times last week and all three start today, with Raul Jimenez also back in.
Newcastle beat Nottingham Forest on the opening day and have since drawn with Brighton and Man City, leaving them as one of five unbeaten teams in the Premier League. A win for them today would lift them into fourth ahead of Tottenham’s game later on. Eddie Howe has brought Sean Longstaff and Chris Wood into his team, which is otherwise unchanged.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

In 2022, only Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham have won more Premier League points than Newcastle’s 43. Their 13 wins in 2022 is already their most since 15 in 2019 and five more than they managed in 2021, and they're absolutely desperate to make it 14 before full-time!.
