Preston North End striker Milutin Osmajic has been banned for eight games by the Football Association for biting Blackburn’s Owen Beck.
The 25-year-old Montenegro international, who admitted the charge of violent conduct, has also been fined ÂŁ15,000.
The incident followed Beck’s sending off in the closing stages of September’s goalless Lancashire derby for kicking out at Preston’s Duane Holmes.
Osmajic will now be unavailable for selection until Preston’s home Championship game against Derby on Saturday, 23 November.
