Drivers from Chiltern, GWR, LNER, Northern and TransPennine will strike on Saturday when seven Premier League matches take place.

Of those matches, the disruption is expected to mainly affect Newcastle’s trip to Fulham – kick-off at 3pm.

Walkouts over the weekend will also affect fans making the trip to see Sheffield United vs Chelsea at Bramall Lane.

But the fans who will suffer the most are those going to Tottenham vs Nottingham Forest in North London on Monday night.

That’s because the list of notables includes c2c, Greater Anglia, GTR Great Northern Thameslink, Southeastern, Southern/Gatwick Express, South Western Railway mainline and depot drivers and the SWR Island Line.

And that is not the only disruption, because on the same day drivers of the London Underground, who are members of the Aslef union, will also strike.

It comes after 98 percent of drivers voted in favor of action – with a second strike on Saturday, May 4, when another series of Premier League matches take place.

The above-ground strike is taking place due to a long-standing dispute over wages.

The underground strike is the result of employees contesting their terms and conditions.

The latest travel scare comes after Chelsea fans faced cancellations ahead of their trip to Manchester City last month.
