The leader of Manchester City, who has won eight times in a row, hosts Leicester.
The second Liverpool will not be chasing him yet, because his match against Leeds was postponed due to the higher number of infected players in the opponent’s team. Leeds will not play against Aston Ville on Tuesday either.
Everton has also asked for a postponement, and his duel at Burnley will not be played either. It had previously been decided that Wolverhampton’s duel against Watford would not take place on Sunday 26 December.
In total, fourteen matches of the highest English football competition have been postponed due to the escalating coronavirus pandemic.
In addition to the City, Arsenal, Tottenham and West Ham will perform alongside City. From 6.30 pm Aston Villa without coach Steven Gerrard, who tested positive for covid-19, will host Chelsea. And from 9 pm, the Sunday program will end with the duel Brighton – Brentford.
The 19th act will take place in Newcastle on Monday, where Manchester United will perform.
The next portion of the six matches is played on Tuesday, and the twentieth act continues on Wednesday and Thursday.
