Manchester City's Pep Guardiola, however, felt ignoring instinct could prove difficult for players. "It is difficult. I don't know if we will be able to do it," he said.
"We are going to do it, we are going to respect the protocols. But the moment you score a goal and one guy runs and the others don't go to celebrate with him, it is weird and uncomfortable.
"We are tested maybe five or six times in the last 10 days. Everyone is negative. We are outdoors where the virus is less aggressive. I don't know. We will follow what the Premier League says but I don't know if we will be able to do it."
