The Premier League season has been suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic, with Arsenal directly affected by Covid-19.
Gameweek 29 of the EPL season had been due to continue following government guidance on Thursday, but late that evening, Arsenal confirmed that head coach Mikel Arteta had contracted Covid-19.
Arteta is already on the mend and says he is feeling much better since his diagnosis, though as a result, Arsenal's London Colney training base has been shut with players and staff now self-isolating.
The 2019/20 season is provisionally due to restart on April 4, but there is no real way of knowing whether that is a possibility given the likelihood that the government will soon impose measures curbing mass gatherings and sporting events.
