Goals from Marcos Senesi and Kieffer Moore proved the difference as the visitors left Selhurst Park with all three points.
The atmosphere around the ground turned toxic as the match progressed, with boos and groans heard inside the stadium.
Palace’s form has slumped in recent weeks as they risk being dragged into the relegation battle.
After the match, a supporter is said to have thrown a plastic bottle at Hodgson as he walked down the tunnel.
According to the Guardian, security staff were quick to react in a bid to identify the fan who threw the bottle.
The former England boss’ future at Palace has been in doubt in recent weeks.
Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper is reportedly being targeted to replace Hodgson if he leaves the City Ground.
Cooper’s side were thrashed 5-0 by Fulham on Wednesday as pressure mounts on the Forest gaffer.

The defeat to Bournemouth leaves Palace with just one win from their last eight league matches.
Hodgson’s side have also lost three of their four matches since last tasting victory against Burnley on November 4.
Speaking after the match, he told Amazon: “The fans have been spoiled here in recent times.”
The 76-year-old returned to the club in March to guide them to safety before extending his deal through until next summer.
However, a difficult festive period now follows for Palace, with matches against Liverpool and Manchester City to come this month.
