Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Southampton 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:

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Southampton

Dibling earns a free-kick centrally after being fouled by Ait-Nouri. Sa does well to advance and punch the incoming free-kick away but he is down injured after clashing with a couple of players.

Southampton's tempo from the first half is nowhere to be seen. Dibling and Aribo combine and almost create another Saints chance, but Wolves do well to clear their lines and launch a counter-attack of their own. Cunha carries it for almost 40 yards and tries to find Gomes, whose attempt is blocked.

Dibling cuts inside on his left foot from the right corner of the box and attempts a shot from just inside the box. But his shot is quite high and well off target, much to the home crowd's pleasure.

Sugawara also comes on, replacing Stephens, with the Saints recognising something needs to change right away if they are to get something out of this game.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Southampton

Wolves are pressing high and looking for another goal here. Much better intensity from the hosts and they can sense another golden opportunity here to put this game to bed.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Southampton

Southampton are rattled now and are making a few fumbles in defence. Thankfully for them, Wolves are unable to capitalise after earning back possession. Wolves have come out swinging in the second half, unlike the way they played for the most part of the first half.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Southampton

Cunha has scored his fifth goal of the Premier League this season, more than any other Wolves player. Meanwhile, Southampton earn a free-kick down the right flank and the delivery is not at all threatening.
