Lowly club Crystal Palace FC (3-8-2, 11 points) will try to snap a six-game losing streak as they face middling team Southampton FC (4-4-5, 17 points) at the Selhurst Park on Dec. 3, Saturday in a 2016-2017 Premier League season match.
Start Time and Streaming Info
The game starts at 10:00 a.m. ET. It can be viewed live online thru FuboTV.
Crystal Palace has not won any contests in the last six rounds resulting in a drop to the 17th spot of the 20-team English top flight table. The team is tied on points with bottom three squad Hull City, but their higher goal difference enabled them to temporarily climb out of the relegation area.
The Eagles are coming off a highly disappointing 4-5 loss in the hands of another bottom three club, Swansea City, on the road at the Liberty Stadium last Saturday, as per BBC Sport.
Palace began the scoring with a 19th-minute goal by Ivorian winger Wilfried Zaha. However, the Swans netted the next three goals, one from Icelandic midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson in the 36th minute and a brace from Dutch winger Leroy Fer in the 66th and 68th, to take a commanding 3-1 lead.
Head coach Alan Pardew's side was able to equalize the count with two goals of their own, courtesy of defender James Tomkins in the 75th and an own goal by Swansea vice-captain Jack Cork.
Palace then got the lead with a goal from Belgian striker Christian Benteke in the 84th, but two injury-time goals by Spanish forward Fernando Llorente gave the win to the hosts.
Meanwhile, Southampton nipped Everton, 1-0, at the St. Mary's Stadium last Sunday to snap a four-game winless slide, the Telegraph reported.
English striker Charlie Austin scored the winning goal of the contest 45 seconds into the match to give head coach Claude Puel's squad a much-needed win and three points in the overall standings.
The Saints are currently at the 10th place in the overall standings, six points above the bottom three relegation area.
