Premier League clubs are prepared to be "guinea pigs" in any phased reopening of stadiums, the competition's chief executive has said.

The 2019-20 English top flight season is set to resume on Wednesday evening after a three-month absence due to the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.

The remaining 92 matches of this season will be played behind closed doors, with mass gatherings still banned as a consequence of social distancing measures designed to restrict the spread of the virus.

There are concerns that there is no commitment from clubs to guarantee relegation from the Premier League but Masters is confident the top flight and the Championship will be able to be completed and remove any integrity questions.

"All the focus has been on completing the season and we decided a couple of weeks ago to only discuss curtailment if it became apparent it was going to happen, so there is no point in me speculating what would happen at that stage," he said.

"Right now we're at the eve of the Premier League restarting, we've got confidence about it finishing, the Championship is starting at the weekend so I see no reason why we can't complete both seasons and for promotion and relegation to take place as normal and to do it that way."
