Sunderland will travel to Everton in round three of the Carabao Cup.
The Black Cats will meet the Premier League side at Goodison Park during the week commencing September 18.
Next month’s tie will be only the third meeting between the two sides in this competition, with the two previous ones seeing the lads come out on top both times. In 1967, Sunderland overcame the Toffees 3-2 before penalties were required to defeat them in their next League Cup tie in November 1998.
A confirmed date and ticketing arrangements will be announced in due course.
