Serie A’s 20 clubs voted unanimously on Saturday to reduce stadium attendance to a maximum of 5,000 spectators for two rounds amid rising coronavirus cases.
That’s lower than the current 50% permitted by the Italian government.
The two rounds with the auto-imposed limit are scheduled for Jan. 15-17 and Jan. 21-23.
A full slate of 10 games scheduled for Sunday can still have stadiums filled up to 50%, as can the Italian Super Cup scheduled for Milan’s San Siro stadium on Wednesday featuring Inter Milan against Juventus.
