Man United last competed in round two back in 2014, they fell to a shock 4-0 defeat against MK Dons 11 years ago.
On that occasion, Will Grigg was certainly on fire as he netted a brace while former Arsenal academy product Benik Afobe also scored twice.
The Carabao Cup remains regionalised in the early rounds, with the draw split into a southern and northern section until the third round.
