CITY’S Carabao Cup second-round tie with Blackburn has been confirmed for Tuesday, August 23.

Mark Hughes’ former club will be making their first trip to Valley Parade since August 2017 – when Richie Smallwood was in the Rovers’ side that won 1-0. Harry Chapman was also on their bench that day.

The cup clash will kick off at 7.45pm as the Bantams look to claim another Championship scalp following last week’s win over Hull.
