Aston Villa can confirm that Wednesday’s scheduled fixture with Tottenham Hotspur has been postponed.

The Club has been in dialogue with the Premier League and Public Health England since the training ground was closed last Thursday following a significant Covid-19 outbreak among first team players and staff.

The club would like to thank the Premier League, Public Health England and Tottenham Hotspur for their understanding of our unprecedented and unique situation.

Our Premier League fixture against Everton has now been rescheduled for Sunday, January 17 (ko 12noon).

The Club continues to wish those affected by the virus a speedy recovery.
