Liverpool's Champions League clash with FC Midtjylland could be in doubt because of the UK government’s new travel ban on non-UK visitors coming from Denmark.
The Reds beat Danish champions at Anfield last month and are due to travel to Scandinavia for the return fixture on 9th December, the final Group D matchday.
However that fixture could now be under threat because of new restrictions imposed by the British government.
They have imposed a ban on non-UK citizens coming from Denmark amid concerns over a new coronavirus strain that has spread from mink to humans.
The BBC report that the situation has also put England's upcoming Nations League tie against Iceland in doubt because they are set to play Denmark in Copenhagen three days before facing England at Wembley on 18 November.
Since June, elite sportspeople have been exempt from coronavirus-related travel restrictions but the government guidance on this says, "Unlike other travel to the UK, there will be no exemptions to this quarantine policy."
The latest rules took effect at 4am on Saturday morning and will be reviewed after a week, the Department For Transport said.
Uefa's coronavirus protocols state that international matches allow for a game to be rescheduled at a date fixed by Uefa, or to be played in a neutral venue if necessary.
