Likely to return in EFL Cup
Henderson (foot) is likely to play Wednesday against Fulham in the EFL Cup, according to manager Pierre Sage. "I think he will play on Wednesday."
Analysis: Henderson is trending in the right direction after missing the last eight matches, and all signs point to him guarding the goal at Craven Cottage in the cup. If that's the case, Henderson could also be set to return to action in the EPL when Palace take on Tottenham on Saturday. Henderson wasn't at his best in the early days of the 2026/27 season, though, conceding eight goals and making 12 saves in three league appearances. His return would push Walter Benitez to the bench.
Still sidelined with foot injury
Henderson (foot) has been ruled out of Sunday's Premier League clash against Newcastle United despite recently returning to team training.
Analysis: Henderson remains unavailable after failing to recover in time for Sunday's encounter against Newcastle, extending his absence to eight consecutive matches across all competitions. The goalkeeper resumed team training Monday and had been considered a potential option for the weekend, but he is not yet ready to return to competitive action. Walter Benitez has been selected to start in goal once again, continuing to benefit from Henderson's absence. The England international's return to training is encouraging, although his availability for Palace's next fixture remains uncertain.
