Snow and ice have hit the United Kingdom this week with temperatures dropping rapidly as we head into winter.
On Thursday night, the temperature dropped below freezing in London as cold nights continue to reign as Christmas edges closer. Some Londoners woke up to snow on Tuesday morning as a yellow warning of ice hit the capital.
Premier League games in the snow are a unique spectacle for fans. They are rare as stadiums these days are built with undersoil heating and frost-covers which prevent the pitch from freezing when temperatures fall below zero.
Although the pitches shouldn't be a worry, the surrounding areas could pose more of a risk. This will be in the front of the minds of London club fans whether travelling home or away. There have been instances where Prem matches were postponed due to snow. We have taken a look at what the weather says for fans.
Arsenal, who are playing at home against Nottingham Forest, looks to be a safe bet. With sunshine on Friday in London and just the light rain forecast on Saturday, Gunners fan should not be concerned for their match facing any difficulties.
Fans travelling away will need to keep a closer eye on the weather. Chelsea travel to Leicester for the midday kick-off on Saturday. The Midlands has experienced a chilly Friday with highs of 4, dropping to lows of -1.
With the earlier kick-off, this leaves less time for any ice to melt. Saturday morning will bring heavy rain, gusty winds and cold temperatures - with the showers likely to melt any lingering snow away.
Tottenham's visit to the Ethiad comes with some yellow weather warnings. The cold weather persisted throughout Friday in Manchester with temperatures very similar to Leicester. On the Saturday, yellow warnings of rain and snow have been set from 4am to 9am the next day. This highlights possible travel delays when heading up north.
While the rain does look strong, it could be doing fans a favour with melting away any remaining snow and ice as temperatures rise to 12 degrees by kick-off.
Although both games face challenging weather conditions, it is likely that both will be safe to play and will go ahead.
