Fans will be back very shortly. After the government announcement on Thursday, some teams can start to welcome back spectators from 2nd December.

In London, Chelsea Tottenham, West Ham, Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Fulham can open their stadiums. As Liverpool is also in tier 2, both them and rivals Everton can have fans.
