The EFL has clarified their intention for remaining matches across the Championship and the rest of the Football League to take place in the usual home and away format.
While League Two clubs have voted to curtail the season, the Championship is continuing discussions on resuming the 2019/20 campaign and League One sides are yet to come to a decision.
If football does return, matches will take place behind closed doors and fans will be unable to be in attendance, something that may also be necessary at the start of the 2020/21 campaign.
However, there are some concerns that some supporters may gather outside the stadium even if no entry is allowed, particularly in decisive games at both ends of the table that could lead to celebrations.
Neutral venues continue to be mentioned as a possibility, which has proven to be an extremely controversial proposal, but the EFL has clarified that they will only be used if there is no other alternative.
An EFL spokesman said: “It remains our intention to play all remaining league matches at clubs’ home grounds as long as they comply with the relevant government guidelines.
“We will only seek to move matches if they are not permitted by the relevant local authority, following any representations from the local police force.”
