The fixture will be behind-closed-door, but fans will then be able to watch the Baggies in action for the first time at Cheltenham on July 18.

They then face Salford the following evening although it remains to be seen whether both fixtures will feature a split squad.

Albion will also travel to Burton Albion, Forest Green and Bolton Wanderers before their Championship opener at Blackburn on August 5.
