BREAKING NEWS: Manchester United vs Leeds and Chelsea vs Liverpool are POSTPONED as the Premier League are forced to shelve two Sunday matches due to insufficient police presences ahead of Queen's funeral... but rest of fixtures are given green light

The Premier League have confirmed two more matches have been postponed due to insufficient policing during the 10 days of mourning for Queen Elizabeth.

League chiefs held a meeting on Monday afternoon to discuss their next steps over scheduling games after last weekend's fixtures were postponed.

It was determined that Chelsea versus Liverpool and Manchester United versus Leeds had to be postponed due to a strain on policing.

With the funeral of the Queen to be hold on Monday - and a number of lead-up events at the weekend as part of the 10 days of mourning - it has been determined that police cannot provide enough cover to allow the high-profile to go ahead.
