Premier League matches could be free-to-air once season restarts

I knew it they had some ulterior motive

But seriously this good will from them is to get new customers.

Yeah sadly so.

Could happen seeing as how long teams have not played.

Going to be alot teams not at their peak to begin with.

Could see some crazy results, and teams go on amazing winning runs or into freefall. Makes it all more interesting.

Yep,

Could see relegation battle being even more interesting tbh.

Top 4 spots could be more open.

Still alot to play for tbh.

When the Premier League returns on 17 June, television viewers will have the option to switch on artificial crowd noise during matches.

With games being played behind closed doors because of coronavirus, clubs, leagues and broadcasters are seeking the best way to showcase matches and mitigate the loss of spectators from stadiums

Premier League teams warm up for restart with friendlies at stadiums
Playing in empty stadiums is going to become the new norm for footballers, so it's probably best they start to get used to it.

That may have been the reasoning behind several Premier League teams holding training sessions at their grounds this week, with some even playing full friendlies to give their players a taste of what is to come.

The Premier League is set to resume behind closed doors from 17 June after being suspended since 13 March because of the coronavirus pandemic
