Uefa has charged the English and Lithuanian Football Associations over crowd disturbances at their Euro 2016 qualifier in Vilnius on Monday.
Riot police quelled skirmishes between rival fans behind one of the goals just before kick-off in England's 3-0 win.
An English FA statement said the incidents had not taken place in the area where fans who bought tickets from the FA were located.
The cases will be dealt with on Thursday, 22 October.
"We would encourage the authorities to identify anybody involved in disorder and deal with them appropriately through the criminal system and with banning orders," the English FA said.
"We will, of course, fully cooperate with Uefa."
