Despite that however, the clubs in the Premier League are still committed to the ambition of welcoming a full compliment of fans back when 2021/22 gets underway.
Both Everton and Liverpool are putting plans in place for the potential of full stadiums once more, but both clubs are following government guidance at every stage.
The Blues had proposals in place last term that can be scaled up or down depending on any regulations that are set to be in place.
The Premier League also confirmed that the weekend of January 29th 2022 forms part of the FIFA International Match Calendar, meaning no matches will take place.
Matchday 37 has also been scheduled for Sunday May 15th to avoid a clash with the FA Cup final, which is set to take place on May 14th.
