Walter Benitez
33-Year-Old
Crystal Palace
Premier
Makes Premier League debut
Benitez registered three saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Leeds United.
ANALYSIS
Benitez would feature in the starting XI Sunday after Dean Henderson (illness) was unavailable, his first start in the league after experiences in France and the Netherlands. He would do well to make three saves and manage a clean sheet, a great debut for many. He will likely return to a bench role in the coming matches, as Henderson should return quickly from his illness.

Dislocates finger

"We start with the negative: Walter Benítez was injured the day after the Millwall game. He dislocated his little finger, and he needs to rest now, so he will miss West Ham and Liverpool.
