HAWTHORN will open the 2013 AFL finals series with a Friday night blockbuster against reigning premiers Sydney.

But the Hawks could be without spearhead Lance Franklin, set to come under scrutiny for a high bump on Swans defender Nick Malceski.

Malceski had precautionary scans on his face on Saturday but was cleared of any structural damage.

Geelong hosts Fremantle in the second qualifying final at Simonds Stadium, a venue where the Cats have won 49 of their past 51 games.

But the Dockers remains confident it can match it with the Cats at their fortress on Saturday afternoon and will be sure to draw on experience from last year's finals victory at the MCG.

Collingwood is set to meet Port Adelaide at the MCG on Saturday night. However, the final make-up is dependent on Sunday's game against North Melbourne

The Magpies would need to beat North Melbourne by more than 20 goals on Sunday to leapfrog Richmond, setting up a mouth-watering clash with traditional rivals Carlton.

Richmond is slated to take on the Blues in the first elimination final on Sunday at 3.20pm.
