Blackburn defender Owen Beck complained to referee Mathew Donohue that he had been bitten by Preston forward Milutin Osmajic following an incident during the first half of the game.
It's a very serious incident, no-one likes to be bitten. Everyone's angry about it. I'm sure the right people will see it and we'll take it from there.
Preston manager Paul Heckingbottom said "there is no place for biting." He acknowledged that while mistimed tackles are part of the game, biting is not acceptable.
The English FA is aware of the incident and is now investigating, recalling a similar biting incident involving Luis Suárez and its severe consequences.
