that game with burnley tonight has been called 0ptus two and half hours before kick—off. that's a huge inconvenience for everyone, particularly the spectators. i think we will see more of it, particularly because of the schedule. more games that will try to be squeezed in. let's embrace your match, which goes ahead. of sites have had pretty patchy form. crazy to think that arsenal could knock west ham out of the top four with the wind. arsenal's home from the season has been exceptional. losing their home game to chelsea, they are unbeaten here. despite recently losing pierre, and i say losing because they took the decision to leave them out of the squad again tonight and strip them of the club captaincy because of the breach of discipline that i think a lot of our viewers will have heard about with a trip to france and returning late. he thought that that was just a step too far. i think while arsenal keep winning and if they win tonight, as you say, they move into the top four. manchester united, tottenham, arsenal, west end, while they keep winning, the issue will not

football — and aston villa's match against burnley is the latest premier league game to be postponed due to covid—i9. that leaves just one match due to take place in the premier league today, with leeds united taking on arsenal.

aston villa versus burnley was postponed just a couple of hours before the scheduled 3pm kick—off. it's after villa returned more positive cases in their squad. that leaves arsenal's trip to leeds as the only match that goes ahead, and manager mikel arteta understands why other clubs are concerned at potential fixture pileups. we always want to play when we have the right conditions to do so, 100%. we have been here on the other side of the table, when we had all the elements to play a football match and we ended up playing it. that's what i'm saying, we need clarity. the results of the competition can be altered and that wouldn't be fair. the scottish premiership is unaffected today — four games kicking off at 3:00. rangers can go seven points clear at the top if they beat fourth placed dundee united — who themselves have had a covid outbreak. their manager said it was an achievementjust to field a team. four teenagers starting. elsewhere, it's dundee 0, hearts 0, livingston ross county is 0—0, whilst bottom side stjohnstone currently 0—1 at motherwell. five games in the c

if they manage to avoid defeat against burnley tonight, that will take them to eight, obviously, and that will be as good as they have managed since the middle of last season. i think there is a bit of head scratching going on about what he has brought to the table, given that there has been a couple of unconvincing victories against crystal palace and norwich city, and then that disappointing performance against newcastle on the 27th of december. i think people are still trying to work out what his style of play will be. and what improvements, if any, he will bring to manchester united. as ever, with manchester united, there is a lot of debate and opinion on either side. leicester's injury and illness woes show no signs of getting better just yet. strikerjamie vardy is facing a month out, with a hamstring injury. vardy, leicester's top scorer this season, suffered the injury in their 1—0 win over liverpool on tuesday. leicester boss brendan rodgers said the extra demands placed on players, during the festive period, had a played a big part in vardy�*s injury. england's cricketer

in the past hour, aston villa vs burnley has been called off. the government and football authorities have urged footballers to get vaccinated against the virus. the most recent data from the premier league, published in october, revealed that 81% of premier league players had had at least one jab, while 68% had been given two doses. the world health organization says the 0micron variant of the coronavirus has now been identified in at least 89 countries and is spreading significantly faster than the delta strain. the who says it's taking only three days at the most for cases of 0micron to double. the rapid spread has seen a raft of new restrictions brought in across europe. lucy grey has this report. as countries across europe brace themselves for a sharp rise in cases due to the 0micron variant, hospitality and travel are the main targets for the new restrictions. the 0micron variant of the covid—i9 virus is exploding throughout europe. it is here, it is in our country. and we are going to see a massive rise in infections. in ireland, all re

they beat burnley 3—1 at old trafford. scott mctominay put united in front before jadon sancho, and cristiano ronaldo sealed the win. it puts united into the top six, while burnley stay in the relegation zone. it's all about energy for me, it's about passion, about energy, and if we show that, especially if we play at home, i think we have a good team, it's not so easy to play against us. but this is about sustainably delivering that kind of performance. manchester city defender joao cancelo says he suffered cuts to the face after attempting to fight off a gang of robbers at his home. cancelo posted an image of his injuries on instagram, claiming "four cowards" took all his jewellery and left him with a facial injury. in a club statement manchester city said... watford's emmanuel dennis will no longer be in the nigeria squad for the africa cup of nations. the reason for dennis' absence hasn't been confirmed. he's one of four changes to the original 28—man squad. the tournament kicks off in cameroon on sunday 9january aft
