The Matchday 17 match between Burnley and Watford, scheduled to be played Wednesday night, has been postponed due to several cases of Covid-19 among the Hornets. The Premier League made the announcement two hours before kick-off.
“The decision was made under direction from medical advisers due to a spate of Covid-19 cases within the Watford workforce. Therefore, the club do not have enough first team players available to play the game ”.
This is the third league game postponed due to the increased circulation of the coronavirus among English elite clubs after Brighton – Tottenham, Sunday, and Brentford – Manchester United, scheduled for Tuesday.
