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:

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Watford

Watford captain Sissoko has scored two goals in his last three Premier League games, as many as in his previous 131 appearances in the competition. The last time the Frenchman scored more than twice in a single Premier League campaign was in 2014-15, scoring four for Newcastle.

Jonny looks to get away from Kamara down the right, but is met with a sliding tackle from behind that brings him down. The Watford left-back was very lucky to avoid a card, there.

OVER!!! Watford break and a good run from Sissoko sets King free. Sissoko finds him, but King's shot just clears the crossbar with Sa all but beaten!

After a bright start, those three Wolves goals in just eight minutes have clearly left the Hornets shellshocked. Their press from front to back has disintegrated, and it looks like they're now in survival mode, hoping not to concede further.
