Relegated Premier League side Leicester will travel to League One Burton in the first round of the Carabao Cup.
The Foxes last featured in the first round draw of the competition in 2013, before their move up to the top flight.
Leeds and Southampton, who have both also dropped down to the Championship, will host Shrewsbury and travel to Gillingham respectively.
Wrexham, who are returning to the English Football League after a 15-year absence, will host Wigan.
The ties will take place in the week commencing 7 August, with the final scheduled for Wembley on Sunday, 25 February.
The 12 Premier League teams not in Europe in 2023-24 will enter the competition in round two, with last year’s winners Manchester United among the remaining teams joining in the third round.
- Championship fixtures: Sheffield Wednesday and Southampton open EFL season
- League One fixtures: Reading v Peterborough & Derby v Wigan on opening day
- League Two fixtures: Hollywood-owned Wrexham start against MK Dons on opening weekend
Ordinarily the side finishing 18th in the Premier League the previous season – in this case Leicester – would receive a bye into the Carabao Cup second round.
But, with West Ham’s Europa Conference League triumph guaranteeing eight English sides in Europe next season, Enzo Maresca’s Foxes join the competition from the start.
In all there are 11 ties where Championship clubs will take on a League Two team, including Sunderland v Crewe, Hull v Doncaster and a Hertfordshire derby between Stevenage and Watford.
Along with Wrexham, Notts County will also mark their return to the competition after a five-year absence with a home game against League One side Lincoln.
