London - Chelsea announced that defender Branislav Ivanovic has appealed against a charge of violent conduct after apparently punching an opponent during a Premier League match.

The attack on Wigan forward Shaun Maloney, which happened late in Chelsea's 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, wasn't seen by match officials but was caught on video.

A Football Association regulatory commission will assess the video evidence and written submissions on Thursday.

If Ivanovic is found guilty, he faces a three-match ban - starting with Chelsea's FA Cup semi-final match against Tottenham on Sunday.

The competition is getting interesting, not so much because of the quality of the matches but more because of the teams making their moves to contest for the top spots, writes blogger Baylion.
