Burnley are back on the road this Sunday, as Scott Parker’s side take on Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
The Clarets head to Nottingham looking to bounce back from last weekend’s defeat to Brighton.
Parker’s men head to the City Ground in 19th spot, 12 points from climbing out of the relegation zone and 13 behind Forest in 16th.
Forest go into the weekend off the back of qualifying for the UEFA Europa League semi-finals on Thursday night and sit three points above the bottom three prior to Sunday’s clash.

What Scott Parker said
"There’s still six games to go, that means six opportunities to get points on the board.
"We’ve got to keep going.
"Everyone here is fully focused on giving everything between now and the end of the season.
"The situation is what it is. We'll keep learning and improving, and keep giving our all.
"Forest find themselves in a fight - they're fighting for their lives.
"The City Ground is a tough place to go, an intense stadium, and they’re obviously off the back of a great result in Europe.
"Both teams are desperate for a win - we’re fully aware of the challenge that lies ahead for us."
