    Original date: 28 November

    To start with, we have a fixture which was actually due to take place before cases of Covid-19 began to rise exponentially. Heavy snowfall at Turf Moor made Burnley's clash with Tottenham impossible to play. Two unlucky Spurs fans had travelled 31 hours from Dallas to Lancashire - quite a tough one to take.

    Original date: 12 December

    Spurs had a major outbreak earlier in December, making it impossible for the north London club to host Rennes in the Europa Conference League - that fixture still needs a date too. Antonio Conte was visibly shaken in his press conference that week and the club's training ground ultimately had to be closed.

    Original date: 14 December

    Confirmation of this postponement came at 23:50 (GMT) the night before the clash between Brentford and Manchester United was due to take place. United confirmed an outbreak needed "ongoing surveillance" and a decision to close their Carrington training ground was taken.

    Original date: 15 December

    A bit of a trend started to emerge with the postponement of Burnley vs Watford, with the game being called off at a late stage in the day when fans had already made plans to attend. Watford had an outbreak in their squad and were unable to fulfil the fixture.

    Original date: 16 December

    This one definitely should have been dealt with sooner by the Premier League. Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed the club had asked for their match with Tottenham to be postponed due to positive cases in his squad, only to see that appeal waved away by the league. It was left until early afternoon for the news to filter through. Spurs were keen to play and may have been able to rearrange their European tie with Rennes for that week had action been taken sooner.

    Original date: 18 December

    Sensible action was taken here, with the game between Man Utd and Brighton called off two days in advance. United suspended all football related activities at Carrington after being left with just seven healthy players and said "the health of players and staff is our priority". It left Brighton with another game to rearrange later in the season.

    Original date: 18 December

    The Premier League postponedfour games in one fell swoop ahead of this particular weekend, giving fans adequate notice when that hasn't always been the case.

    Original date: 18 December

    West Ham have enjoyed an excellent season so far but their fixture with relegation scrappers Norwich will need a new date. "Norwich City FC have an insufficient number of players available to fulfil their match due to COVID-19, injuries and other illnesses," the Canaries confirmed.

    Original date: 18 December

    Another of the games to be postponed ahead of time. A statement from the Premier League read: "Watford FC also continue to have an ongoing outbreak, resulting in their training ground being closed, and have an insufficient number of players available to fulfil their match."

    Original date: 18 December

    This was one of two games that was supposed to go ahead on Saturday 18 December, but instead was scrapped due to an outbreak in the Villa camp. Their statement read: "The Club is extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused to Burnley Football Club, both our own supporters and the Burnley fans due to attend the fixture but have acted as swiftly as possible this morning to minimise disruption."
