Hibernian striker Marc McNulty faces a two-game ban after being charged over his alleged stamp on Hearts midfielder Sean Clare.

The Reading loanee appeared to plant his foot into his Jambos opponent during the opening half of Tuesday's 3-1 defeat at Easter Road.

McNulty has now been issued with a Scottish Football Association fast-track notice of complaint which claims he breached disciplinary rule 200, which covers acts of "violent conduct".
