Villa-Burnley off due to Covid as clubs fear Premier League integrity on a 'knife-edge'

Premier League managers will meet on Monday to discuss the Covid crisis engulfing the competition

TESTING TIMES: The weekend's sport, including a raft of Premier League fixtures, has been disrupted by positive Covid tests. 

ASTON Villa’s Premier League match against Burnley at Villa Park has been postponed just hours before kick-off, following a Covid-19 outbreak in the hosts’ camp.

It had been the only remaining 3pm kick-off in the top flight but results received on Saturday morning left Villa’s squad too depleted for the game to go ahead.
