Burnley head coach Scott Parker has said his players and staff will spend Christmas night away from their families as part of their preparations for their top-of-the-table game at Championship leaders Sheffield United on 26 December.

"We'll train Christmas Day and overnight Christmas night as we have an away game at Sheffield United on Boxing Day.
