Among the many considerations of whether to postpone this weekend's Premier League fixtures will have been when to play the rearranged fixtures.
For all the arguments to play these fixtures or not following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, the decision was taken to postpone as a mark of respect. Manchester City will resume action in midweek in the Champions League, where they will be able to pay respects to the Queen, with a decision yet to be taken over next weekend's fixture at Wolves.
What we do know is that City's fixture with Tottenham has been postponed, and due to both sides' involvement in Europe, the game now won't be played until the new year.
