Here are the fixtures for October. There is an international break and so there are only 3 rounds. Normally there is at least one all premiership round.

Here are our fixtures for January. There are only two rounds because of the 3rd and 4th rounds of the FA Cup both being in January. There comes a stage where the two predictions leagues run concurrently - at least by the quarter final stage, possibly by the 5th round stage if enough premier league clubs have gone out by then. 11th/12th January Crystal Pal v Arsenal Chelsea v Burnley Everton v Brighton Leicester v Southampton Man Utd v Norwich Wolves v Newcastle Spurs v Liverpool Bournemouth v Watford Aston Villa v Man City Udinese v Sassuolo (Serie A) 18th/19th January Watford v Spurs Arsenal v Sheff Utd Brighton v Aston Villa Man City v Crystal Pal Norwich v Bournemouth Southampton v Wolves West Ham v Everton Newcastle v Chelsea Burnley v Leicester Liverpool v Man Utd
Here are our fixtures for February. There are some unusual ones because of the 'winter' break in the middle of the month, which the Premiership thinks it needs, whereas others have to play on. For the first time there is a fixture from Belgium, and a couple of other surprises.

Here are our fixtures up until the 15th March: I hesitate going beyond that because the quarter finals of the FA Cup are scheduled for the 21st/22nd. 7th/8th March Liverpool v Bournemouth Arsenal v West Ham Crystal Pal v Watford Sheff Utd v Norwich Southampton v Newcastle Wolves v Brighton Burnley v Spurs Chelsea v Everton Man Utd v Man City Ipswich v Coventry (Div 1) 14th/15th March Watford v Leicester Bournemouth v Crystal Pal Brighton v Arsenal Man City v Burnley Newcastle v Sheff Utd Norwich v Southampton Aston Villa v Chelsea West Ham v Wolves Spurs v Man Utd West Brom v Birmingham
We now know that the FA cup quarter finals are an all Premiership affair which decimates the Premiership programme for the weekend of 21st/22nd of March. It leaves us with 3 fixtures, but the hornets are one of them. I have searched for 7 extra fixtures to make up a full round - avoiding Italian fixtures because of the Coronavirus there, and also steering clear of fixtures in Germany, France and Spain for the same reason. The following weekend, the 28th/29th, is scheduled as an international weekend - though I doubt very much if fixtures like the England v Italy one are playable, other than behind closed doors. 21st/22nd March Burnley v Watford Liverpool v Crystal Pal Wolves v Bournemouth QPR v Fulham Leeds Utd v Luton Wigan v Stoke City Sheff Wed v West Brom Nottm Forest v Bristol City Ipswich v Portsmouth Wrexham v Boreham Wood
