Fulham now face Spurs on Wednesday and then take on Chelsea at home on Saturday as Covid-19 strikes

By Paul Lagan

Chelsea's west London derby away to Fulham on Friday has moved to Saturday.

The Blues were originally scheduled to play the Whites at the Cottage on Friday with a 7.30pm kick-off.

But because of fixture changes elsewhere the match has now been moved to a 5.30pm kick-off a day later.

Fulham will now face Spurs at White Hart Lane Stadium on Wednesday at 8.15pm. They were due to meet on December 30.

Spurs were supposed to be playing Aston Villa on Wednesday but due to a Covid-19 outbreak at the Midland club, they successfully lobbied the Premier League to postpone the fixture.
