Ryan Porteous has lost his appeal against the red card he picked up against Rangers last weekend.
The Hibs defender was shown a straight red following a crunching challenge on Joe Aribo at Ibrox.
His side were leading 1-0 thanks to Kevin Nisbet's header but Porteous ' sending off after just 30 minutes turned the tide in Gers' favour as Steven Gerrard's side went on to win 2-1.
Hibs opted to appeal the decision as they felt referee Nick Walsh's decision was harsh.
But now a disciplinary panel have ruled against the appeal and upheld the ruling, meaning Porteous will serve a two-match ban.
That means the centre-half will miss Hibs' upcoming clash against Dundee Utd and then Aberdeen after the international break.
A statement from Hibs said: "We can confirm that our appeal against Ryan Porteous’ sending off against Rangers has been unsuccessful.

"Our centre-back was dismissed on the half-hour mark for a challenge on Joe Aribo in our 2-1 defeat at Ibrox.
"After receiving our appeal, the SFA have deemed his sending off was not a case of wrongful dismissal, which means that Porteous will serve a two-match ban.
"He will miss our first two games after the international break when we face Dundee United at home (Saturday 16 October) and Aberdeen away (Saturday 23 October)."
