Follow all the action from Molineux Stadium
Follow live coverage as Wolverhampton Wanderers face Tottenham Hotspur 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:
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur
Wolves moved just two points behind Tottenham with a fabulous 4-2 win over the North London side. The visitors made a horrendous start, with Wolves scoring their quickest goal in Premier League history after 85 seconds when Ait-Nouri managed to find the far corner with a fine strike. This lead was doubled through an embarrassing own goal from Spence after Vicario had kept out a header from Munetsi. The home side continued to dominate at the start of the second half but the visitors pulled a goal back from nowhere through Tel after Semedo botched his clearance. They restored their two-goal advantage as Strand Larsen scored a tap in after Romero had made an error when attempting to control the ball. Spurs were barely in this and yet found a way back again with Richarlison but just a minute later, Cunha, on his return ended the contest with a confident finish after more atrocious Tottenham defending. Wolves remain in 17th, but have Tottenham in their sights, with Ange Postecoglou's men in 16th place. Wolves now travel to Manchester United next weekend while Spurs prepare for their Europa League quarter-final second leg at Eintracht Frankfurt. There's a good chance that game decides the future of Postecoglou. He may very well have managed his last match in the Premier League with Tottenham. That's all from me, thank you and goodbye!
