Western Bulldogs forward Jack Redpath will challenge his two-match ban at the AFL Tribunal on Tuesday night.

Redpath was originally handed a two-match suspension by the AFL's Match Review Panel on Monday afternoon, after striking Phil Davis on Friday night.

Due to Redpath's bad record, his strike - which was graded as intentional conduct with low impact to the head - could not be reduced to one match.

The forward was unable to accept an early-plea of one-match, meaning he would have to accept a two-match ban, or fight the charge.

Should Redpath fail in his bid to appeal the charge, he could be facing up to three matches on the sidelines.
