The Football Association have charged Chelsea with misconduct over fan behaviour in relation to the FA Cup win over Charlton Athletic in January.
The third-round match took place at The Valley and the Blues went on to secure a 5-1 victory and progress against the Championship side.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the FA said: "Chelsea FC has been charged for misconduct in relation to its FA Cup fixture against Charlton Athletic FC on Saturday 10 January.
"It's alleged that around the 56th minute of the match, the club failed to ensure that spectators and/or its supporters (and anyone purporting to be its supporters or followers) didn't behave in an improper, offensive, abusive or insulting way with either an express or implied reference to religion or belief."
Chelsea will now have until Friday, 29 May to provide a response to the charge.
