(Reuters) - Arsenal have asked the Premier League to postpone Sunday's north London derby at Tottenham Hotspur because they have a depleted squad due to COVID-19 cases, injuries and some players participating at the Africa Cup of Nations, the club said.
The Premier League said it will make a decision on the matter on Saturday. If the game is postponed, it will be the 21st league match to be called off this season.
