MANCHESTER UNITED WILL travel to League Two Grimsby in the Carabao Cup second round as they attempt to bounce back from one of their worst seasons in recent history.
The 2023 winners will head for Blundell Park during the week beginning 25 August after being paired with the Mariners in Wednesday night’s draw, in which they were the last team team out of the hat.
