The Numbers: Palace’s 150 Premier League clean sheets – News

With the assistance of membership historian Ian King, we have damaged down the numbers behind our newest landmark…

Dean Henderson’s clear sheet at Bournemouth was his eighth in a Crystal Palace shirt, and fourth in 18 Premier League matches this season.

Palace’s at the moment longest-ever spell within the Premier League means our longest-serving ‘keeper within the top-flight period – showing between 2018/19 and 2022/23 – tops the listing, with Vicente Guaita preserving 42 shut-outs in 149 appearances.

Maybe it was all concerning the motivation, because the Spaniard revealed a Palace TV interview: “The primary time I saved a clear sheet, Andros [Townsend] instructed me I needed to come again with doughnuts. Now, each clear sheet, it’s doughnuts to the coaching floor!”

Finishing our high three are Wayne Hennessey, who saved the opposition at bay on 28 events between 2014/15 and 2017/18, and Nigel Martyn, who saved 25 clear sheets throughout our first two seasons within the Premier League.
