Your Guardian sport weekend: Australian Open finals, Premier League and T20 cricket

The sports world converges on Melbourne for the Australian Open finals, Premier League action, and T20 cricket.

Football fans will be treated to a cracker of a weekend in the Premier League. On Saturday, Brighton host Everton, while Wolves face Bournemouth. The day's highlight, however, is at Elland Road, where leaders Manchester United take on bottom-placed Leeds United, who are unbeaten at home but have struggled away from West Yorkshire.

In the evening, Manchester City welcome Tottenham to Old Trafford in a crucial match that could alter the Premier League title picture. City have been boosted by the arrival of new signings Antoine Semenyo and Marc GuΓ©hi, while Spurs are searching for a goal to boost their faltering season.

The women's game is also on show on Sunday, as Manchester City host Chelsea in the Women's Super League. The defending champions will be under pressure to come away with three points from this top-two clash, which could see them widen the gap at the top of the table.

Cricket fans will be keeping an eye on England's T20 World Cup preparations, as Harry Brook's side faces Sri Lanka in a crucial match. In other news, Australia's Novak Djokovic is set to face Carlos Alcaraz in the men's singles final at the Australian Open, a battle between two of the world's top players.

The stage is set for an exciting weekend in sports, with multiple blockbuster matches on show across football, cricket, and tennis.

I'm also really intrigued by the women's Super League match between Manchester City and Chelsea on Sunday. As a fan of both teams, I think it's going to be a great test for Chelsea - they've had an amazing season so far, but Manchester City are looking super strong right now too. 🀯 And let's not forget about Harry Brook's T20 World Cup prep match against Sri Lanka, which is always thrilling to watch! ⚾️ Overall, I think this weekend is shaping up to be an absolute scorcher in terms of sports action - can't wait to see what happens! πŸ˜„

The T20 World Cup is also heating up, especially with Harry Brook's side facing Sri Lanka. That match could make or break their chances of making it to the next round.

Lastly, I'm low-key hyped for the women's game on Sunday - a top-two clash between Manchester City and Chelsea? The defending champions are gonna need to bring their A-game if they wanna stay ahead in the table. πŸ’ͺ
