Manchester City's Premier League match against West Ham on Sunday has been called off because of Storm Ciara.

Scotland's Women's Six Nations match against England is also postponed.

Huddersfield Giants v Leeds Rhinos and Wakefield Trinity against Catalan Dragons' Super League games are off.

All six Women's Super League matches, including Everton v Liverpool, have been cancelled, along with horse racing at Exeter, Southwell and Punchestown.

But Sheffield United v Bournemouth in the Premier League is set to take place.

A Manchester City spokesperson said: "Due to extreme and escalating weather conditions and in the interests of supporter and staff safety, today's match has been postponed."West Ham will run free coach travel for their supporters when the fixture is rescheduled.

Scottish Rugby said efforts would be made to play the Women's Six Nations fixture on another date.

"Safety of travelling fans, players and venue staff was the priority. Discussions are under way around rescheduling the game," the Scottish governing body said.

Arsenal's WSL match was postponed "on the grounds of crowd safety, due to extreme weather conditions".

More than 20,000 fans were expected for the WSL Merseyside Derby at Goodison Park, while Birmingham against Brighton, Bristol City v Reading and West Ham v Manchester City are also off.

Exeter's race meeting, where the 2019 Grand National runner-up Magic Of Light was due to run, was abandoned because of high winds.

The fixture at Southwell, which has an 'all-weather' surface, was also cancelled, along with the Irish meeting at Punchestown which was hit by 27mm of rain and flash flooding.

All five fixtures in the Women's Championship have been postponed, while the Dutch Eredivisie and Belgian Pro League and the Belgian second tier have postponed their fixtures.

Dutch champions Ajax were among the sides to have fixtures postponed, while Alan Pardew's ADO Den Haag have also seen their trip to Sparta Rotterdam called off.
