According to The Athletic, the Premier League plans to consider changing the rules for postponing matches after this weekend's event.
After the 23rd round of the tournament this weekend, the Premier League will usher in a short holiday, during which the clubs believe that the Premier League will hold a meeting to discuss how the rules for postponing matches should be changed, and the next round of matches will take place on February 8.
Under current rules, if a team doesn't have 13 non-goalkeeper players and 1 goalkeeper who can play, then the game will be postponed regardless of whether they have the right U21 players. The rule has caused a lot of controversy, with 21 games in the Premier League currently being postponed.
On Wednesday, the Premier League issued a statement that said: "Taking into account the change in the situation and the reduction in the number of confirmed cases in various teams, the Premier League will consider changing the rules for postponing matches." The current rules were developed after the emergence of the Opichron virus last December, and we will continue to monitor the trend of the virus and will update the relevant rules. ”
