Aston Villa am Boxing Day ohne Steven Gerrard

As the table inane announced on Saturday, Gerrard has been positively tested on Covid-19 and will definitely be missing Aston Villa on Sunday against Chelsea (18.30 clock) and also on Tuesday at Leeds United. Unsure, however, is whether the game in Leeds will be able to take place at all.

After a corona outbreak within the team, Leeds had already asked the Premier League to lay the game planned for the Boxing Day at the FC Liverpool. The wish came the league regrettably. Whether sufficient players will be reported in time for the Villa Match?

Great Corona Worry in England

The Premier League is currently plagued by numerous CoronaSorgen, only four of ten games had been held last weekend — among other things, Aston Villa was affected, which could not spend his game against Burley. Overall, the Premier League must already find 13 games after-holding dates.

For the 41-year-old, the finding is a setback, he had led the seven-time English champion since his takeover in November with four wins from six games in ten — only against the top teams Manchester City (1: 2) and his ex-club FC Liverpool (0: 1) had to digest the former national player defeats.
