Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho will serve a four-match suspension after his claim of wrongful dismissal was rejected by the Football Association.
The Brazil international was shown a straight red card by referee Lee Mason in the 32nd minute for a reckless challenge on Burnley midfielder Johann Gudmundsson during City's 2-1 win at the Etihad on Monday.
His suspension includes the standard sanction of an additional match as it was his second Premier League dismissal of the season, having been sent off in the 3-1 defeat to Chelsea on December 3. (skysports.com)
