The only fair way would be a complete do over.
They could finalize the FA Cup if they choose, in 1 week at the end of May, 8 teams, 7 games, Saturday/Wednesday/Saturday, all played at Wembley. Finalists would need to play 3 games.
Champions League is trickier because of the 2 legs and the fact that half the teams would still have to finish their current ties. If those remaining 8 teams played the 2nd leg of those ties, that accounts for 1 match day, 4 games, with an additional 13 games after that. That's 17 total games, with the possibility that 2 finalists could potentially play 6 games, which would require at least 3 weeks.
Then you consider Man City and Chelsea could potentially be involved in all 9 games, so they ties would have to be organised as such, meaning 4 weeks minimum, and that's to play 3 rounds in 2 Cup competitions.
When you look at it that way, the idea of finishing the league is insanity, and would have a massive impact on the following season.
It could obviously be simplified if each remaining team in CL agreed to play each tie as 1 single game, decided with extra time and penalties, no away goals, but that would be a massive decision. But even then, none of that factors in travel.
It would essentially be like organising the World Cup and European Championships to take part in 5 weeks across multiple countries. The logistics would be insane.
