Stoke defender Andy Wilkinson has been charged with violent conduct by the Football Association following an incident with Manchester City's Mario Balotelli.
Wilkinson is alleged to have elbowed Balotelli during Stoke's 1-1 draw with champions Manchester City at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday.
The incident was missed by the match officials, but after reviewing television footage the FA has decided to charge Wilkinson.
The Stoke full-back has until 6pm on Wednesday to respond to the charge.
If he is found guilty Wilkinson is likely to be handed a three-match ban.
