Wrexham have been handed a home tie against fellow second-tier opposition Hull City, while Birmingham City have been provided with the tie of the round at home to Sheffield United.

Southampton - who finished bottom of last season's Premier League - will travel to Northampton Town, with Coventry City at home to Luton Town in a repeat of the 2023 Championship playoff final.

West Bromwich Albion will make the trip to Derby County, while last season's Championship playoff semi-finalists Bristol City are drawn to play MK Dons.
