The Premier League is looking into changing its guidance around match postponements after criticism over the number of games being called off.
This season, 22 fixtures have been postponed because of Covid-19 cases, injuries and international call-ups.
The league has been criticised recently, amid claims that clubs were manipulating the rules around what warranted postponements.
New guidelines could be in place for 8 February.
It is understood early discussions have taken place in the last few days following controversy over the league's decision to grant Arsenal's request to postpone Sunday's north London derby at Tottenham.
