National League North champions Stockport County host the first game of the new season in front of the BT Sport cameras at Edgeley Park.

Alan Devonshire takes his Maidenhead United side north for the clash live on BT Sport 1 on August 3.

Fellow champions Torquay United also have home comforts on their return to the division - Boreham Wood head to Plainmoor.

Notts County start life in the National League on the road with a trip to the Silverlake Stadium to face Eastleigh. Fellow new-boys Yeovil are also on their travels to Barnet.

Harrogate Town and Solihull Moors face-off with both looking to set their stalls out early after suffering play-off heartbreak last season.

Chorley will look to use their home advantage as they get their first look at the division against Neil Smith’s strengthened Bromley side at Victory Park.

Revitalised after their relegation reprieve, Aldershot Town host AFC Fylde who closed last season in style with an FA Trophy win at Wembley.

Wrexham will be fancied by many and no doubt a bumper crowd will be packed into the Racecourse for their opening day bout with Barrow.

John Sheridan has given fans hope of better times ahead for Chesterfield and he will be looking for a solid start at the Proact against Dover.

Hartlepool United will be looking to put a spanner in the Spireites’ works and host Sutton United.

Elsewhere, Ebbsfleet United host FC Halifax and Woking head to Dagenham & Redbridge for their first game in the National League for year.
