Premier League clubs will meet on Monday to discuss the escalating crisis around the coronavirus pandemic.
With nine games postponed over the past week, including five already from this weekend's 10-match fixture list, clubs want the chance to discuss the options.
Brentford manager Thomas Frank has led calls for all matches to be called off until the Boxing Day programme to give clubs a chance to reset.
Others feel the break should be even longer.
However, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has said the season should not be stopped at all. The Premier League said on Thursday it intends to carry on playing matches as long as it is safe to do so.
