Follow live coverage as Aston Villa 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:

Aston Villa vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Fresh from starting their Champions League campaign with success in Switzerland, Aston Villa now return to Premier League duty with a game against local rivals. After adapting to a plastic pitch in Bern, they ultimately ran out 3-0 winners over Young Boys to start the league phase with maximum points, making it three wins on the spin for Unai Emery's men. Last week, Villa fought back to beat Everton 3-2, with super-sub Jhon Duran striking a spectacular winner as they moved onto nine points from a possible 12.
