Nottingham Forest's first Premier League match for 23 years will be away at St James' Park against Newcastle United on the opening weekend of the 2022/23 season.
The Reds now know that they will travel to the North East, with the fixture set for August 6, and, currently, a 3pm kick-off, with television picks yet to be announced. The week after, they will welcome West Ham United to the City Ground in what looks, on paper, a difficult opening to the season.
A trip to Everton follows that before hosting Tottenham Hotspur and travelling to the North West again on the final day of August to face reigning champions Manchester City in the first midweek fixture of the season. After that, the relative strength of opponents eases somewhat in September - Bournemouth (h), Leeds United (a), Fulham (h) - before a trip to East Midlands rivals Leicester City kicks off October straight after the first international break of the season.
