Crystal Palace have announced manager Roy Hodgson will be back in the dugout this weekend after missing the 3-1 defeat at Aston Villa because of illness.<\/p>\n
Hodgson was feeling unwell on Saturday morning and, as a result, he did not travel to Villa Park, where his side led through Odsonne Edouard before conceding three times late on, twice in added-on time.<\/p>\n
Palace said the 76-year-old former England boss oversaw the club\u2019s training session on Tuesday and he is now expected to be at Selhurst Park on Saturday as the Eagles take on Fulham.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are delighted to confirm Roy Hodgson led Crystal Palace training today,\u201d said a brief statement on the club\u2019s website on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe manager was absent from Saturday\u2019s match at Villa Park but will return to the dugout for Saturday\u2019s match against Fulham at Selhurst Park.\u201d<\/p>\n
Palace did not say how poorly their manager was ahead of the Villa fixture but did confirm he was in touch with first-team coaches Paddy McCarthy and Ray Lewington throughout the encounter.<\/p>\n
