Palace returned to Selhurst Park on Wednesday night after picking up an important draw away at West Ham at the weekend.
It was their first point won since a victory away at Burnley at the beginning of November, but they failed to grasp anything again.
Marcos Senesi opened the scoring for Bournemouth in the first-half before Kieffer Moore sealed the win in second-half stoppage-time.
The result is Palace’s seventh league defeat of the season and fourth consecutive game without a win.
