Mikel Arteta’s Gunners have been in poor form of late, winning just one of their last five games. Mikel Arteta’s Gunners have been in poor form of late, winning just one of their last five games. Why isn’t there a 3pm game? The Premier League is on winter break so there is no match at 3pm today. In recent seasons, Premier League matches have been suspended due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Last season, the World Championship was held in the winter, but the tournament was held with a one-month break.
This season’s winter break runs from Sunday 14th January to Monday 29th January. To avoid a busy schedule over the Christmas period, the Premier League has confirmed it will not be running city tours within 24 hours. In Spain, Germany and France, racing is often suspended for the winter. However, this is not the case in the UK and the break spans two weekends.
Gameweek 21 will therefore take place over two weekends with five games per week. Ten teams play one weekend and rest the next, and the other 10 teams rest before playing the following weekend.
The start of the Premier League is not scheduled for today at 15.00.Both Liverpool and Arsenal have the weekend off this week.
The Premier League is back after a two-week break following last weekend’s FA Cup tie. However, many fans will note that today’s 3pm kick-off will not take place at all. Meanwhile, leaders Liverpool and Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal are out this weekend.
