As it stands, no fans will be admitted to top-flight matches before October at the earliest.
There were 2,500 Brighton supporters allowed into a Premier League stadium for the first time in almost six months at the end of August, for a friendly between Brighton and Chelsea at the Amex Stadium as part of a government trial event. Tottenham are waiting to find out whether they will be allowed about 4,000 fans into the corporate areas of their new stadium for Sunday's opening fixture against Everton.
What about season tickets?
Clubs are taking various approaches on whether they are offering season tickets at all this season.
Some are offering refunds, credits and access to ballots for when partial crowds are allowed at games.The Premier League 2020-21 season starts this weekend, with the final round of matches on 23 May 2021.
All football was suspended in March because of the global coronavirus pandemic, with the 2019-20 English top-flight season restarting behind closed doors in June and only finishing at the end of July - giving clubs just seven weeks between domestic campaigns.
Other than that, there are plenty more unknowns as the new campaign begins.
It was announced on Tuesday that all 28 of the matches to be played in September will be televised live.
One of those - Leicester v Burnley on 20 September - will be broadcast on the BBC.
Fans and the government had been asking the Premier League to consider making more matches available to be shown live while supporters are not allowed in stadiums.
All 92 top-flight matches were shown live on Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime Video and BBC Sport after last season resumed in June behind closed doors, following a three-month suspension.
All English Football League games will be available to watch from home while matches continue to be played behind closed doors or at limited capacity.
A temporary measure has been agreed with Sky Sports to allow all games not televised live to be streamed online.
Will there be changes to the EFL and FA Cup to reduce fixture congestion?
The winter break has had to be scrapped, with this campaign running five weeks shorter than a standard season because of the late end to 2019-20.
And for the first time, there will be no replays in this season's FA Cup.
Also, a full round of Premier League fixtures has been scheduled for the weekend of the FA Cup fourth round. The final will be played on 15 May, before the final weekend of the Premier League campaign.
The Carabao Cup second, third and fourth rounds will be played on consecutive midweek dates from 15-16 September. Premier League teams have agreed to play, with those in Europe coming in at the third round stage.
This season, the EFL Cup semi-finals will be one-off games rather than two-legged affairs as they have been since the tournament began in 1960-61.
The EFL Trophy will start on 8-9 September with the Wembley final on 14 March.
Uefa has said privately it will take a dim view of clubs playing in weeks when their competitions are being played - effectively every available midweek in between October and November international breaks, plus three straight midweeks after the November one.
What about the drinks breaks?
The controversial drinks breaks have been ditched because it was not thought temperatures in winter would get high enough to create an issue.
What about coronavirus testing?
In last week's Premier League meeting, there was a commitment to complete this coming season should a second wave of coronavirus hit England, although a final decision is yet to be made.
In terms of testing, this will now only happen once a week rather than twice, although the number of staff and players being tested will rise to 75. The Premier League feels the number of positive cases was so small when the season resumed that higher numbers of tests only increased the potential for false positives.
Some consideration was given to getting rid of tests altogether but this has not happened, with the situation due to be reviewed at the end of September and tweaked if it is felt necessary.
Already this week, Manchester City winger Riyad Mahrez and defender Aymeric Laporte have tested positive and - according to current guidelines - will self-isolate for 10 days and not train with team-mates. One additional outfield player and a third goalkeeper will now be allowed into the 'red zone' on match days.....
