Newcastle United will be looking to start their new season strongly with five fixtures to be played before the start of the season, facing the likes of Hull City, Porto and Augsburg.
Rafael Benitez's side get their pre-season preparations under way against St Patrick's Athletic in Dublin, a game that is scheduled to be played just two days after the end of the World Cup.
After finishing 10th in the league this season, Newcastle will be hoping to push for a top six finish but face a challenging task in hosting Tottenham at St James' Park to kick off their new campaign.
