From the source

Tottenham Hotspur defeated Crystal Palace convincingly on Saturday at home 2-0 to make it three straight wins, and they proved an important point by winning without their starting No.

Because Spurs looked a whole lot better with Maddison back in the starting 11 after more than a year away, as he scored and dominated creatively in a 3-1 win over the club of his youth, Coventry.

And while he was not as good against Chelsea due to a small injury, he was still a presence in the 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge.
