Tottenham’s clash with Fulham on Wednesday has been postponed due to a number of positive coronavirus cases in the visitors’ camp – but the Premier League insist there is no reason to pause the season.
The match, scheduled to kick off at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium at 18:00 GMT, is the third Premier League game this month to be called off due to COVID-19 – and the second this week.
Fulham reported a significant rise in positive tests on Tuesday and, with several players showing symptoms on the day of the game, requested that the London derby be rearranged to a later date.
The decision to officially postpone the match was made by the Premier League less than three hours before it was due to get under way.
