Derby County will face Manchester United at Old Trafford in Round Three of the Carabao Cup.


The tie will see Frank Lampard go up against his former manager Jose Mourinho in the dugout for the first time.

The pair won two Premier League titles, two EFL Cups and one FA Cup together at Chelsea between 2004 and 2007.

The Rams, who reached the third stage of the competition with an impressive 4-0 win against Hull City on Tuesday, were drawn against the Red Devils by Joleon Lescott and David Seaman on Thursday evening.

Lampard’s side will face the Premier League giants on the week commencing 24th September, with the match date and ticket details to be confirmed in due course.

Before the season, the EFL confirmed a series of rule changes that will affect the competition this term.

Extra-time has been removed, so should the score remain level after 90 minutes, penalty kicks will take place.

The format of the penalty shoot-out will revert to the traditional format, as opposed to the ABBA concept that was trialled last season.

VAR will also be in operation for all fixtures played at a Premier League stadium.
