Morecambe will discover their league and cup fixture lists next week

Morecambe's league and cup fixtures will be announced during the course of next week

As previously outlined, Morecambe’s League Two campaign will start on September 12 and finish on the weekend of May 8-9 next year.

With the new season starting in mid-September rather than August, it will also mean 11 midweek league games for the Shrimps during 2020/21.

It has also been confirmed that the first round of the Carabao Cup will take place on Saturday, September 5.

However, with that being an international weekend, matches can be played on an alternative date subject to call-ups.

The draw for the first round, which will be regionalised, will be made next Tuesday, August 18, at a time to be confirmed.

The EFL Trophy is also scheduled to begin before the league season with the first round of matches arranged for September 8-9.

As in previous years, 16 category one clubs have been invited to take part and they are as follows: Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brighton and Hove Albion, Chelsea, Fulham, Leeds United, Leicester City, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Norwich City, Southampton, West Bromwich Albion, West Ham United and Wolves.

The draw for the group stages will take place, again, on Tuesday, August 18 at 1.30pm.
