AFC Bournemouth midfielder Jefferson Lerma has been suspended for four matches following his sending off in the win over Birmingham City. 

The Colombia international receives an additional game to the usual three-game suspension as it's his second red card of the season. 

The club placed an appeal to the FA following the game on Wednesday but an FA committee upheld the referee's decision. 

As a result, the midfielder will miss tomorrow's trip to Blackpool as well as matches against Nottingham Forest, Swansea City and Stoke City.
