After QPR on the opening day, a trip to League One champions Lincoln City follows seven days later, before a short journey to Ashton Gate to face Bristol City to round off the first month of the campaign.
Other key away days supporters will be jotting down in their diaries will be a first visit to Molineux in 17 years on Tuesday, September 8 ahead of a trip to fellow-relegated Premier League side Burnley on October 31.
