Leicester City will begin their 2009/10 Championship campaign against Swansea City at the Walkers Stadium on Saturday, August 8.
The Foxes will lock horns with the Swans for the first time in the league since the 1979/80 season - a Martin Henderson goal earning Jock Wallace's side a point in the 1-1 draw at Filbert Street on their way to the Division One title.
City will then face a hat-trick of away clashes starting with Macclesfield Town in the Carling Cup First Round (W/C August 10) before travelling to Roy Keane's Ipswich Town (Saturday, August 15) and play-off finalists Sheffield United (Tuesday, August 18).
Other notable fixtures see the Foxes travel to St James Park for a clash against much fancied Newcastle United on Saturday, August 29 with the return leg at the Walkers scheduled for Saturday, January 30.
The Foxes will also welcome nearby rivals Derby County, Nottingham Forest and Coventry City to the Walkers on Saturday. October 17, Saturday, February 27 and Saturday, March 20 respectively.
The club's Championship campaign will conclude with the visit of recently-relegated Middlesbrough on Sunday, May 2.
All fixtures are subject to change.
