Football Fixtures & Coronavirus
As everyone is now aware, the spread of the coronavirus has stopped most football leagues around the world.
But when can fans hope to see their national leagues restart? When can we expect to see live football broadcasted once again?
Note: Live football is still happening!
Football fans should note that some leagues are still active.
In Europe, the Turkish Super Lig and Russian Premier League are the two most high-profile divisions still in competition.
There’s also a fair amount of football in the southern hemisphere too.
Australia’s A-League is still on, while in South America there’s football in Argentina, Chile and Bolovia.
And there’s more.
If you really want to search out live football during the coronavirus hiatus, here’s a list of other leagues which remain open for business: Ukraine, Belarus, Serbia, South Africa, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Singapore, Bangladesh, New Zealand and Hong Kong.

Below is a list of the stop dates and Predicted Restart schedules for the biggest European leagues plus the premier European competitions.
