The Football Association will block any attempt to reschedule postponed Premier League games during the winter break later this month.But it has been re-introduced this year and no games will be played between January 23 and February 7.

The blank weekend on January 29-30 would be an obvious time on which to play, but the FA are reluctant to give ground.Although the Premier League have no plans to use the winter break to clear the fixture backlog, that could change if more fixtures are postponed or if some of this weekend’s FA Cup third-round ties are called off.Related Topics:
