Premier League LIVE SCORES: Tottenham vs Newcastle updates plus latest from Palace vs Chelsea and Man City vs West Ham

IT has been a big morning already for Tottenham with the news that they are set to sign a young Czech goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky.

But there is also fascinating team news in Ange Postecoglou’s starting XI.

Brandon Austin, who turns 26 this week, starts in goal for his first-ever Spurs appearance with Fraser Forster ruled out with the illness bug that has affected the squad this week.

Yet James Maddison has been left on the bench - despite being suspended for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final against Liverpool and Postecoglou’s squad stretched to the limit.

It means he will have to hope to come on if he is to have a chance to impress watching England boss Thomas Tuchel and his assistant Anthony Barry.

Playmaker Maddison, 28, was due to start last Sunday’s game against Wolves but was ill on the day so was put on the bench, coming on as a second-half sub.

He then went out later that night to the darts with team-mate Brennan Johnson - though boss Postecoglou said he had “no problem” with that when asked about it on Friday.

Meanwhile, Sven Botman returns for Newcastle for his first appearance since March after recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament injury.
