Manchester City and Manchester United have matches that could be impacted, starting their games around sunset, which marks the end of the daily fast. The Football Association's guidelines state that a designated short pause will allow players to break their fast, with specific timing agreed upon prior to play. This procedure aligns with similar directives from the Premier League, ensuring the observance of Ramadan does not interfere significantly with match flow.
