With the Premier League set to return in mid-June, discussions are taking place on which games will be played in neutral venues.
Police are eager to shift some games away from home stadiums in order to avoid crowds gathering outside of stadiums.
The footballing police chief Mark Roberts has confirmed that six games have been flagged so far.
Surprisingly, London derbies (West Ham v Chelsea, Tottenham v Arsenal) have not yet been included.
Games that are crucial in the relegation battle could also be added, as the picture on the bottom six becomes clearer.
The measure of neutral stadiums has not been used in Germany, where fans have stayed away from grounds while games take place.
