A bumper weekend of sporting action awaits for those needing a sporting fix.

While most supporters may not be able to attend their favourite sporting event in person over the weekend, there is plenty on offer for armchair fans.

From the start of the new domestic football season, one-day international cricket, the PRO14 final and the Tuscan Grand Prix, an action-packed schedule awaits to keep you glued to your sofa.

So sit back and relax as the PA news agency provides the essential guide to what to watch and where to catch all of the action.

Saturday

PREMIER LEAGUE

Premier League, Fulham v Arsenal – BT Sport 1 1130; Liverpool v Leeds – Sky Sports Main Event & Sky Sports Premier League 1700

After a shortened summer break, the Premier League kicks off again with newly-promoted Fulham hosting FA Cup winners Arsenal.

Saturday's late match sees last season's Sky Bet Championship winners Leeds – who are making a long-awaited return to the top flight for the first time since 2003 – travel to champions Liverpool.

Will the Reds hit the ground running or can Marcelo Bielsa's men lay down a marker for the campaign ahead?

FA WOMEN'S SUPER LEAGUE

Barclays FA Women's Super League, West Ham v Arsenal – BT Sport 1 1715

West Ham's Women's Super League match against Arsenal at Dagenham is set to go ahead in front of 1,000 spectators as part of the government's reduced-capacity pilot to help get fans back into grounds.

There will be as much focus on the stands as on the pitch, where Arsenal will be looking to respond to their Champions League defeat to Paris St Germain last month.

Experienced Swiss defender Noelle Maritz will be one to watch, having signed from Wolfsburg.

RUGBY UNION

PRO14 final, Leinster v Ulster – eir Sport 1 1730

After a thrilling T20 series, England and Australia face off again in the 50-over game.

Eoin Morgan's men got the better of their old rivals on way to World Cup glory last summer.

Australia captain Aaron Finch, though, will have the squad fired up for what could be a decisive fixture in the three-match series at Emirates Old Trafford.

PREMIER LEAGUE

Everton fans have high hopes for this season under manager Carlo Ancelotti, who has strengthened the squad over the summer break.

Brazil international Allan, Watford's Abdoulaye Doucoure and high-profile Colombia playmaker James Rodriguez will add plenty of substance to the squad, but will the Toffees come unstuck against Jose Mourinho's Tottenham – themselves out to get back into the Champions League shake-up?

Sunday's afternoon kick-off sees newly-promoted West Brom host a Leicester side aiming to maintain their own progress under Brendan Rodgers.

FORMULA ONE

Tuscan Grand Prix – Sky Sports F1 1405

Rugby League has battled back to action through a number of positive coronavirus cases in the Betfred Super League, which has seen games postponed.

The focus on Sunday, though, moves to knockout competition.

The Totally Wicked Stadium in St Helens hosts the showdown between Castleford and Hull for a place in the quarter-finals.
