Follow live coverage as Brighton & Hove Albion face Wolverhampton Wanderers 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:

The pressure might be building on Gary O’Neil. His maiden campaign in charge of Wolves was impressive beating some of the league’s big boys, but now he can only dream of three points. They are rock bottom and winless during the opening eight games, they have scored in their last five games though, which have all ended in defeat. If they make it six goal-scoring losses, then they will match the Manchester City team from 1960, and in 60 years they could be celebrating a treble!

Brighton have been one of the teams that have raced out of the docks and impressed early on. Fabian Hurzeler seems charismatic and also able to build a team that can win games, quite an important trait as a Premier League manager. They sit sixth currently and if results go their way they could end the day in third place.
