Ipswich Town wil face Bristol Rovers in the first round of the 2020/21 Carabao Cup after this morning’s draw.
Paul Lambert’s men, who lost 3-1 at Luton in the first round of last season’s cup, will host League One rivals Rovers in the first competitive clash of the new season.
The first round fixtures are due to be played on September 5, but could be moved to August 29 due to the international break.
