City will travel to Colin Cooper's Hartlepool in the first round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.
It will be a familiar trip for the Bantams - who have recently been there twice before in the competition. Last season, they won a second-round tie on penalties after the game finished goalless. City were eventually knocked out in the area semi-finals by Crewe.
As well as manager Cooper, Pools boast former Bantams Jack Compton and Nialle Rodney in their ranks.
The tie will take place in the first week of September.
