Premier League games at Watford and Southampton were delayed due to supporters requiring emergency medical attention.

A Watford fan suffered a cardiac arrest which caused the match against Chelsea at Vicarage Road to be temporarily halted, while the start of the second half of Saints’ clash with Leicester was delayed as a supporter was carried out of the Kingsland Stand.
