Boring weekend without English football. The joy is that my darling chelsea will have enough rest with more players hoping to maintain fitness as they zoom zoom zoom to UAE for the club world cup. An easy win for tuchel again. What a manager! Howbeit, there are some clubs that even though they go for 100day hiatus, they won't progress past 4th and 5th place. If you mention man u and arsenal you are on your own o

Epl is overrated

You are becoming useless here... commenting trash on every post to stay relevant..

Since no EPL this weekend. You can use the opportunity to watch the games at the ongoing AFCON. The partnership with TikTok also allow you undiluted access to interesting AFCON football contents.

[quote author= post=109721013]Here are the reasons,, as far as we know @[/b],
Following a busy Christmas, Premier League clubs are finally getting a break from stresses of competitive football.

Not only was the festive period jam-packed, but clubs suffered Covid-19 outbreaks, with teams being stretched beyond their limits.

Players are becoming more worn and tired, while managers continue to utilise their squads in the best way they can.

But now Premier League sides can rest easy, as they embark on a mini break to recuperate ahead of the rest of the season.

To allow teams to rest and rejuvenate themselves ahead of a busy final third of the season, players will get this coming weekend off.

There will be no Premier League games on Saturday, January 29 or on Sunday, January 30.


[b]The only losers in this situation are we fans,
who are already counting the days down for football's return.


BLUES FOR LIFE.
Have a Very Good Rest Lads,
You really need this break so badly.
Let's come back and give the Champions League a go once again.
Chelsea Haters go choke!

The English top-flight is temporarily shutting down following a hectic festive period
Article continues below
The 2021-22 Premier League festive period proved to be one of the most hectic in recent memory as the Covid-19 strain Omicron swept through English football, causing a number of postponements and forcing clubs to shut their training grounds.
Managers have had to stretch their squads to the limit to cope, but there is some reprieve this weekend as there are no fixtures scheduled to play.
So why is there no Premier League football this weekend? GOAL is here to bring you everything you need to know including which games from other competitions across the globe will be on TV, if you need your football fix.

Why is there no Premier League football this weekend?

There is no Premier League football this weekend due to the start of the winter break, which was first introduced in the 2019-20 season.
The break, which had to be scrapped last season as the schedule was shortened due to the coronavirus pandemic, is designed to protect players from burnout and reduce the risk of injuries.
The winter hiatus officially began on January 24 , with players now taking in a much-needed rest before next week's international break.

When is Premier League football back?

A total of 22 matches have been postponed so far this term, but the Premier League have no plans to re-arrange any of the games to take place during the winter break.
Article continues below
As it stands, Watford's rescheduled clash with Burnley will be the next top-flight fixture to go ahead on February 5 , with it reported that a rule change is imminent that will require clubs to provide proof of four positive Covid-19 cases in order to request a postponement.
Premier League football will then resume on
February 8 with Everton vs Newcastle, Burnley vs Man Utd and West Ham vs Watford.
Most other top-flight clubs will be back in action on the weekend of February 12, except for Chelsea, who won't return to domestic duty until the following week, after their trip to the United Arab Emirates for the FIFA Club World Cup.

Which football games are on this weekend & how to watch on TV?

Supporters may not be able to get their full fix of Premier League football this weekend, but there will still be plenty of other matches at both club and international level to enjoy.
The English Football League have a full schedule of fixtures to take place across Saturday and Sunday, while action from the Scottish Premiership and leagues 1 and 2 will also continue.
Peterborough United vs Sheffield United and Ross County vs Rangers will both be available to watch via Sky Sports on Saturday, while Sunday's televised fixtures on the same platform will see Derby County take on Birmingham City and Cardiff City host Nottingham Forest.
Sky Sports are also providing coverage of the Afcon quarter-finals, with Gambia vs Cameroon and Burkina Faso vs Tunisia on Saturday, while Senegal and Morocco are both set to be in action on Sunday.

I see Nigerian youths wailing badly because they won't be able to select premier league games on their bet9ja slip this weekend.

This I have seen.

Nah Same You Nah See Super Eagles Lifting The AFCON Trophy.
..
You Be Real False Prophet

Bros i dey agree this is the trashy afcon ever especially with teh refs. and sports in general nfl refs have been garbage as well with bad play calls. They did my raiders very dirty. The best afcon i watch was the 2013 and 2019 addition that what got me hooked to african football. Hopefully this nigeria vs ghana world cup qualifying and qatar 2022 will make up for this dry tournament because of the country history. i prefer champion league because man u always seem to start bad and end up winning late
