Burton Albion will begin their second season in the Championship with a home fixture against Cardiff City on August 5.
Having finished 20th at the end of their debut campaign in the second tier, Burton's aim once again in 2017/18 will be survival - but they face a tough start.
Their next two games are at relegated Premier League sides Hull and Middlesbrough, with four of the five matches that follow coming against top-eight teams from last term.
Meetings with local rivals Derby come on December 2 (away) and April 14 (home), while the campaign ends at Preston on May 6.
