Hereford will entertain League Two side Newport County in a preseason friendly on Saturday 21st July.
Newport will be no strangers to Hereford, but it's been five years since the side last met. In March 2013, the Exiles beat the Bulls 3-2 at Edgar Street shortly before they won promotion back to the Football League at the end of the season.
Manager Pete Beadle says it'll be a tough game, but it will give the Bulls a taste of what's to come.
Beadle told the official Hereford FC website: "Newport are a decent side who had a great run in the FA Cup last season, they finished in the top half of League 2 as well so will be tough opposition. Mike Flynn has done a great job there, and we can expect to be up against a decent side.
"You play different teams for different reasons in pre-season, and with Newport hopefully they’ll give us a taste of what we can expect in the coming season, and that is a higher intensity of football for longer periods of the game than we’ve been used to over the past three seasons.
“With them being a league club, and not too far away distance wise, hopefully, they’ll bring a number of travelling supporters as well."
The club say they hope to announce two more home friendlies over the coming weeks.
