MANCHESTER, ENGLAND (WTVB) – The Premier League announced Thursday it will resume play on June 17, though it appears a number of matches will be held at neutral sites for crowd control purposes. British police are particularly concerned with matches involving Liverpool, whose large fan base has been preparing to celebrate with the club on the verge of winning its first EPL championship in 30 years. Liverpool’s first match back, a road game against rival Everton, is expected to be moved to another location, and the Reds’ home game against Crystal Palace the following week could be moved as well if Liverpool is in position to clinch the title.
