Neil Taylor has said Swansea face an uphill battle to stay in the Premier League despite the impending arrival of Paul Clement as their new manager.
Swansea suffered a fourth straight defeat as they lost 3-0 at home to Bournemouth on Saturday, and are bottom of the table with only 12 points from 19 games.
Former Derby boss Clement is expected to leave his post as Carlo Ancelotti's assistant at Bayern Munich in the next 48 hours to become the third manager at Swansea this season.
He should be in the stands at Crystal Palace on Tuesday, taking a watching brief as caretaker Alan Curtis tries to restore morale to a team that has conceded 13 goals in four games and 44 in total this term.
