JACOB MURPHY returns to Newcastle United's starting line-up for the final game of the Premier League season.

Murphy replaces Kenedy, with the Chelsea winger unable to play against his permanent employers.

The former Norwich City midfielder will start on the left-hand side, with Matt Ritchie remaining on the opposite flank.

Dwight Gayle continues as a lone centre-forward, with Joselu on the bench.

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has selected Emerson Palmieri at left wing-back ahead of Marcos Alonso, with Eden Hazard playing behind Olivier Giroud in attack.
