Chelsea striker Diego Costa is contesting the Football Association's charge for violent conduct -- a move which has the full support of the club.
The Spain international is facing an immediate three-match ban for his apparent stamp on the Liverpool's Emre Can during Tuesday's Capital One Cup semifinal second leg at Stamford Bridge.
Costa has until 6pm GMT to respond to the charge of violent conduct, with the panel meeting on Friday to decide the outcome which could see him miss the weekend's game with Man City and perhaps an extra-game ban for a "frivolous" appeal.
