The only Premier League match of the day sees Leeds United face Arsenal, with kick-off at Elland Road at 17:30 GMT.
Five other top-flight fixtures scheduled for today, the last of which was Aston Villa v Burnley, fell by the wayside after Covid-19 ripped through the football calendar.
The evening match is still standing, however, despite the fact that Marcelo Bielsa’s squad has been ravaged by injury.
Ten senior Leeds players are unavailable for the clash with the Gunners, with Diego Llorente added to the nine we already knew about.
Bielsa’s four changes are all enforced, with Jamie Shackleton, Llorente, Daniel James and Junior Firpo all out.
Robin Koch returns from injury, while Joe Gelhardt, Cody Drameh and Mateusz Klich also come into the side.
The Whites’ very youthful bench contains 15-year-old Archie Gray, with the average age of the hosts’ substitutes being less than 19 years old.
Arsenal’s team news is a serene picture by comparison, as the visitors are unchanged for the fourth match in a row.
Emile Smith Rowe remains a substitute as a consequence, with the fit-again Bernd Leno joining him on the bench.
The Gunners do have a confirmed Covid-19 case, however: Albert Sambi Lokonga misses out after testing positive.
Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang also sits this one out following a recent disciplinary breach.
