Follow live coverage as Leicester City 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:

Leicester City vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Vitor Pereira is taking charge of his first game as Wolves manager, and fresh off leaving his job as Al-Shabab manager in Saudi Arabia. It was a brave choice, and the Portuguese manager walked into one of the most chaotic situations in the league. Matheus Cunha, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Mario Lemina have all got in some sort of brawl after the final whistle in their last two games, so keeping this team calm and building camaraderie will undoubtedly be the first job for him.

Leicester City vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

Two of the newest managers in the Premier League face off against each other today, and both of them will be looking at this fixture as a game they must, and more importantly can, win. Ruud Van Nistelrooy has picked up four points in his first three games, but come into this game off a 4-0 battering against Newcastle. The Foxes have shown fight under the Dutchman but also an inability to stop shots on their goal conceding over 70 in their last three games. Danny Ward could be in for a busy afternoon.
