The region's football league teams - could see their seasons end today.
The English Football League, external is due to speak to the clubs from Leagues One and Two and it's thought ending the season is the most likely outcome due to finance - the cost of testing, no fans through the gate and player contracts expiring are the major factors.
Options to decide the outcome of the season include voiding it, using present placings or points per game.
In League One, six clubs, including Peterborough United and Ipswich Town, have said they are determined to finish the League One season's remaining fixtures.
Peterborough are sixth in the table with nine games to play and are three points off the automatic promotion places, while Ipswich are in 10th place.
Of the other teams, Wycombe Wanderers are eighth with a game in hand. Points per game would put them up to third but weighted points per game would get them to fifth so a place in the play-offs could be at stake.
MK Dons are in 18th place and Southend, in 22nd, are in the relegation zone.
In League Two, Cambridge United are 16th, Colchester United are in sixth, Northampton Town are seventh and Stevenage are right at the bottom and at risk of dropping out of the Football League.
