Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Norwich City 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:

Gibson goes down to receive some treatment. The Norwich defender hurt his back while making his clearance a few minutes ago. He eventually trots back onto the pitch to the sound of boos from the Wolves fans.

Wolves give the ball away from the corner and Norwich can counter! Unfortunately for the visitors, Pukki slips just as he starts getting up to speed. Up the other end, Gunn makes a routine catch from Chiquinho at his near post.

Wolves get the closest they've come to scoring for a while. Silva leaps to get on the end of Podence's high cross into the box, but his header is just a touch too high.

Aarons gets sight of goal from range but his decision to go for it is ill-advised. This game's petering out a little.

Jimenez gestures towards the referee. He's unhappy with how long Gunn is taking over his goal-kicks. Norwich would no doubt take a draw now.

Wolves are continuing to push but aren't making much progress at the moment. Ait Nouri's penalised for tripping Rupp.

Norwich get a free-kick down their left as Chiquinho checks the run of Lees-Melou. Dowell's delivery is suggestive rather than provocative, and Wolves intercept it easily.

Normann shakes his head. The Norwegian landed awkwardly after a challenge with Hwang just before Pukki got sent racing forward. It looks like his game is over.
