Video - Capital One Cup: Two Yorkshire derbies provide the first-round highlight
Leeds head to familiar territory in Rovers’ Keepmoat Stadium, a venue where they have not lost in six visits, winning five, with Doncaster having not triumphed against them in all competitions on home soil since way back in August 1951.
United will make the short trip down the A1 in the competition for the third time in four years this August, having triumphed 3-1 in a second-round clash there in August 2013, thanks to goals from Scott Wootton, Matt Smith and Ross McCormack.

Meanwhile, 2012-13 finalists Bradford City will travel to Bootham Crescent in another all-White Rose clash at York City, who have not won a League Cup tie since 1997-98.

Huddersfield Town, Rotherham United and Sheffield Wednesday have also been afforded home comforts in the first-round.
