Manchester United's first cup date of 2025/26 has been confirmed.
Ruben Amorim's Reds will be in action against Grimsby Town on Wednesday 27 August.
United were the last team out of the hat in the Carabao Cup second-round draw and are facing the League Two outfit at Blundell Park.
Kick-off is at 20:00 BST and the match will be broadcast live in the UK by both ITV and Sky Sports.
The contest comes either side of our Premier League fixtures against Fulham and Burnley, later this month.
Grimsby have announced that the travelling Reds will be located in the Osmond Stand.
It is a first competitive meeting between the clubs at senior level since March 1948.
We drew 1-1 on that occasion, with Jack Rowley scoring a late equaliser in the away clash in Division One. There have been 37 matches between the two teams in total, with 14 of those coming at Blundell Park.
