Leicester boss Sven-Goran Eriksson spent the 2007-08 season at the helm of Premier League title chasers City and the former England coach will also renew acquaintances with Roberto Mancini at the third-round clash.
The current City boss played under Eriksson at both Sampdoria and Lazio before beginning his coaching career alongside the Swede and the former Italy striker even finished his playing career with a short-term stint at Leicester.
The last meeting between the two sides in the competition came in 2003-04 when Man City won 3-1 at the Walkers Stadium after a draw at the City of Manchester Stadium.
Man City have won three and lost none of their last six away games against Leicester City.
