While the Premier League granted the request to postpone the Brentford match, Tottenham and Leicester’s requests to delay their own clash on Thursday have been denied.
Each request is being treated on a case-by-case basis, but with United having one of the largest squads in the top-flight, it remains to be seen if the latest request will be granted.
Amid the outbreak, a full squad was not available to train on Wednesday, with players tested in their cars as they arrived.
The Premier League may also have to take into account the state of Brighton’s squad when making a decision about the game.
