Chelsea coach, Antonio Conte has called for the final three fixtures of the title race to be played simultaneously, to avoid giving any side an advantage.
The Blues play at Everton on Sunday afternoon, before Tottenham host Arsenal in the North London Derby.
Chelsea have a four-point lead with five games to go and could extend it and put pressure on Spurs.
They will only play at the same time on the final day.
Conte says it is not an advantage for his side now but added: “For sure, at the end of the season, I think that when you have two teams in the race, in contention for the title, I think you must have a good balance to try to put the fixtures in the same hour, on the same days, and don’t give advantage to one team or another.
“When you arrive at the last three games, when you see there are two or three teams very close to fight for the title, you have to find a solution not to give advantage for one team or another. Try and keep it the same hour, the same days to rest.”
