Rumors persist that Roy Hodgson’s position as manager of Crystal Palace is under threat as the club are reportedly eyeing up former Nottm Forest manager Steve Cooper as a replacement. The pressure on Hodgson is understandable as Palace are now eight EPL games without a win, and while that run does include a draw with Man City and Brighton, the south-London side have now slipped down to 15th, and need to pick up all three points here.
The situation is somewhat similar over at Brentford. While manager Thomas Frank isn’t under the same level of pressure as his Crystal Palace counterpart (yet), the Bees are on a similarly poor run having suffered four defeats in a row since beating Luton Town at the very start of the month. Brentford are just a place ahead of Palace in the table, with a single point separating these sides.
Will the Eagles or the Bees finally get that much-need win? You’ll need to watch a Crystal Palace vs Brentford live stream to find out, and we’ve got all the details you need below.
