The Bantams have been drawn away to Hartlepool United in the second round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy.
Having received a bye in the first round, Bantams were paired with the League 1 side in the northern section draw of Saturday morning's draw live on Sky Sports Soccer AM show.
It is the second time on the trot that City have been handed an away tie against League 1 opposition after Carlisle United ended the Bantams interest in last season's competition back in December 2009 at the Northern Section Semi-Final stage.
Pools booked their place in the second round after defeating Northampton Town 4-0 on Tuesday (31 August 2010) evening.
City's last trip to Victoria Park came on the opening day of the 2005/06 Coca-Cola League 1 season. Goals from Dean Windass and Bobby Petta ensured the Bantams left with all three points on that day.
The tie is scheduled to take place on the week commencing 4th October 2010.
Tickets details for the match will be announced shortly.
