A key topic at the meeting is set to be the proposal to play the outstanding fixtures on neutral grounds – a plan which several clubs oppose.

It has also been mooted that the league could head overseas.

The date when football may return is also likely to be discussed, and the Premier League are expected to take guidance from the government’s latest round of advice on social distancing, which is due at the end of this week.
