Millwall, Charlton and AFC Wimbledon will find out their EFL Cup round one opponents next Thursday.
Fixture lists across the Championship, League One and League Two will be revealed at 9am next Thursday, June 22, with the Carabao Cup round one draw taking place live on Sky Sports at 2:30pm the same day.
All 72 EFL Clubs, including newly promoted Notts County and Wrexham, will be in the draw.
The 12 Premier League clubs not competing in Europe will join in round two, with the other eight Premier League Clubs starting in round three.
The round one draw will see teams drawn in Northern and Southern sections, with matches scheduled to take place week commencing August 7.
Millwall were knocked out in the first round last season, losing 1-0 at Cambridge United thanks to Liam O’Neil’s 59th-minute strike.
Charlton made it all the way to the quarter-finals of the competition last season, knocking out QPR, Walsall, Stevenage and Brighton to head to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United.
However, Erik ten Hag’s side, who went on to win the competition, beat Dean Holden’s Addicks 3-0.
Johnnie Jackson’s Dons were knocked out in the first round after their 2-0 defeat at home to Neil Harris’ Gillingham side.
