Reds kick off a new campaign on Tuesday, August 8 when promoted Warrington Town reserves visit Manchester Road.
Altrincham reserves, sixth last term, are then due in town the following Saturday.
The Cheshire League announced the opening week’s fixtures in the Premier Division during a live transmission on Monday.

Yellows then host Golborne at Mereheath Lane.
