Bradford City will face an away tie at local rivals Huddersfield Town in the first round of the Capital One Cup.

The Bantams were the highlight of last season's competition reaching the final - becoming the first fourth tier side to reach a major final at Wembley.

They beat three Premier League sides along the way - Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa.

The prospect of a derby in City's second game of the season will bring some added excitement to the start of the 2013/14 campaign as they prepare for League One after winning promotion last season.

The two sides last met in 2011 in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy with Bradford winning 4-3 on penalties after a 2-2 draw.

The tie is due to take place on August 6th or 7th, just a few days after City's opening match which is due to be announced this week.
