Hull City’s Carabao Cup first-round tie against League One side Wigan Athletic at the MKM Stadium will take place on Tuesday 10th August, kick-off 7:45pm.

The last meeting between the sides, in the penultimate match of last season, saw Grant McCann’s men crowned League One champions after a 3-1 victory, with the Latics also securing survival.

The Tigers, under Phil Brown, were also victorious in the most recent EFL Cup clash in August 2007, running out 1-0 winners at the DW Stadium thanks to a Stuart Elliott goal.

Ticketing arrangements will be announced in due course.
