Steven Gerrard insists Aston Villa will not be pushing for the season to be paused even if their own Covid situation remains delicate.
The club had to cancel a training session last Sunday amid an outbreak and Gerrard hinted they still have issues as they awaited results from Friday's PCR tests ahead of Saturday's clash with Burnley.
That is one of just five Premier League games to survive this weekend and the sharp rise in cases across the division has also led to calls for a circuit breaker to give clubs the chance to try and get back on top of the escalating crisis.
