Liverpool city partners unite ahead of 2020-21 football season

Ahead of the Reds’ Premier League title defence starting this Saturday, Liverpool Football Club is once again working with its city partners - Liverpool City Council, Merseyside Police and LFC’s supporters’ union, Spirit of Shankly - to ensure the football season kicks off in the safest way possible.

All Premier League fixtures will take place behind closed doors until at least October 1, 2020.

The club and partners are committed to delivering a robust plan in line with government guidance which prioritises the safety, health and wellbeing of the local community, supporters, staff, players and emergency services, using the same format throughout the remainder of last season’s games behind closed doors.
