Lampard expecting Covid disruption for Chelsea with Man City and FA Cup games in doubt

 The Blues boss says health must come first as a surge in coronavirus cases continues to disrupt the football calendar

Frank Lampard says Chelsea will discover in the next few days whether their upcoming match against Manchester City will be postponed, but insists safety must take priority despite the potential fixture backlog it may cause.

City were forced to postpone their Premier League trip to Everton on Monday after an outbreak of Covid-19 among their squad.

In a statement the club said the security of their bio-secure bubble had been compromised and there was a risk the virus could spread further among the squad and staff.
