Kilmarnock will appeal the red cards issued to Kirk Broadfoot and Rory MacKenzie on Saturday against Aberdeen,.
Both players were shown straight red cards by referee Steven McLean, who came in for severe criticism after the game from Kilmarnock manager Steve Clarke for his performance.
Kilmarnock defender Stuart Findlay was also sent off for two bookable offences during the match which Aberdeen won 1-0.
Clarke said on Tuesday: "We'll have a look at the three red cards. I'm pretty sure that Stuart Findlay will go down as two yellows. The second yellow was in front me at the dugout, I couldn't say it wasn't a yellow
"The Broadfoot and McKenzie one we'll look at as a club, and I'm pretty certain as I stand here, that we'll appeal both."
On Saturday, Clarke had called for MacLean not to officiate Kilmarnock games any more and dubbed it "the worst refereeing performance I have ever seen in my career."
"Since I've been here, he's always seemed to struggle with Kilmarnock games," said Clarke.
"Maybe, or definitely, that's because his father (Stuart McLean) was a player here for so many years. Whether he feels the pressure of that, it seems to affect his performance.
"I have mentioned privately that maybe Steven shouldn't referee Kilmarnock games just to take that burden, that extra pressure, off him. Now I'm saying it publicly. I think it would be better for Steven as a referee and for Kilmarnock as club."
