Premier League football will return this weekend following the death of the Queen, but two high-profile fixtures have been postponed after police consultation. — Premier League (@premierleague) September 12, 2022“Following extensive consultation with clubs, police, local Safety Advisory Groups and other relevant authorities, there was no other option but to postpone the three fixtures,” a Premier League statement read. “For the matches being played during the period of national mourning, tributes will be paid to the Queen at Premier League stadiums. While Chelsea’s visit of Liverpool is off, their home Champions League match against Red Bull Salzburg on Wednesday will go ahead as planned, while the midweek EFL programme is unaffected. That’s it.”After football came together last weekend to honour and remember Her Majesty The Queen, we have provided an update on the return of football matches.
