Matthias Jaissle's side travel to the Coventry Building Society Arena to face last season's Championship winners, managed by Frank Lampard, on Monday 12 October (kick-off 8pm BST).
It will be the Magpies' first Premier League encounter against the Sky Blues since September 2000 as Alan Shearer's penalty and Kevin Gallacher's strike sealed a 2-0 win at Highfield Road.
Outlined below are the key dates and timings for the Coventry City ticket sale:
Phase 1 – Monday 7th September – 2pm
Ticket application opens for all Season ticket holders to apply for a ticket for this fixture.
Phase 2 – Tuesday 8th September – 2pm
Ticket application window closes. The club will process all submissions, allocating tickets in loyalty point order We will also ballot a small number of tickets to those who do not meet the loyalty points threshold.
Phase 3 – Wednesday 9th September – 2pm
Supporters who are successful in the application process will now be emailed with a window to go online and purchase their ticket(s) for the fixture. Tickets will be sold using a ‘select your own seat’ model, giving fans the flexibility to choose where they sit and who they sit alongside - whether friends or family.
This system removes the need for travel groups as supporters can make seat selections directly during the purchase window.
Phase 4 – Friday 11th September – 2pm
Once the purchase window for successful applicants closes, any remaining tickets that haven’t been purchased will be offered to those who applied for the fixture and fall within the next tier of loyalty points below the point at which sales were previously fulfilled.
For example, a fixture sells out at 10 loyalty points, tickets will then be offered to supporters who applied for tickets with 9 loyalty points.
