Follow all the action from Molineux Stadium
Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Watford in the Premier League today.
Manchester City are reigning champions after a dominant 2020/21 season and Pep Guardiola's side are favourites to win it again boasting as they do one of the best squads in Europe.
European champions Chelsea have proven they have what it takes to dethrone City, however, having done it in last season's Champions League final and will be hoping to add a domestic title to the one won in Porto.
Liverpool were winners back in 2020 ending a 30-year wait for league glory and Jurgen Klopp is sure to have them back challenging again at the sharp end this season too while Manchester United will be looking to be back in the title picture with Cristiano Ronaldo returning to his former club in the summer.
It's not all about the action at the top though with Norwich, Watford and Brentford promoted to the top tier for 2020/21 and hoping to hold their own against the best English football has to offer and avoid the drop.
We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

We'll play just a minute of added time to close out this half.

OVER!!! Moutinho lofts a throughball over for Ait-Nouri to latch onto, and he's supported by Jimenez. The goalscorer finds Hwang in the six-yard box, but he can only blaze his effort over the bar!

Wolves are currently maintaining a 60.7 per cent rate of possession, and with little resistance coming in the form of Watford pressing, Burno Lage's side appear happy to keep the ball and protect their big lead.

Kabasele picks the ball up on the edge of the area from a Wolves clearance, and drives for goal. It's a decent effort which Sa leaves, and the Wolves keeper is vindicated as the ball whips past the post.

Moutinho's cross in from a Wolves corner sees Foster come for the ball but miss it completely, and Cathcart has to hoof the ball clear to prevent another erroneous goal being conceded!

Before tonight, Wolves had lost all three of their Premier League games played on a Thursday, doing so twice in February this season against Arsenal, and in January 2020 against Liverpool. But going on their performance so far, that 100 per cent losing record will soon be eradicated.
