Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Nottingham Forest 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:

SAVED!!! What a stop to keep Wolves at bay!! Rodrigo Gomes whips another ball into the middle and this time it is met by Strand Larsen, but the Norwegian's header from point-blank range hits an unmoved Sels to somehow stay out of the net!!

Gibbs-White and Elanga combine down the right flank again and the latter crosses from the byline. It's teed up for Dominguez to strike, but even after his effort is blocked Forest remain on the attack with plenty of numbers in the final third.

CHANCE!!! Lima's deep cross from the right is met by Strand Larsen in the box, but he can't quite time his first-time finish properly and skews it into the waiting gloves of Sels!
