United will kick off their campaign against newly-promoted Wolves at Gateshead International Stadium on 6th September, with the curtain coming down against Bristol City Women at St. James' Park on 9th May.

The Lasses will be playing six games at St. James' Park throughout the campaign, including the Tyne-Wear derby against Sunderland, as well as Durham.

Tanya Oxtoby's side's meeting with Wolves will be the first opening-day home game for United in the WSL2, with the previous two seasons seeing Newcastle kick-off the campaign with a 1-1 draw at London City Lionesses and a 2-1 win at Nottingham Forest Women.

The Magpies' first away trip of the season will see Oxtoby and her side travel to face Bristol City Women at Ashton Gate, the ground where Newcastle's 2025/26 season came to an end.

Later in September, United will enter the Subway Players Cup week commencing 21st September, which will bring about their first two-game week of the season with Leicester City Women - recently relegated from the WSL - visiting the Gateshead International Stadium.

Newcastle's first North East bout of the season comes at Durham's Maiden Castle on 4th October, before Oxtoby's charges head into the first international break of the season and then travel to face Forest on October 25th.

Burnley arrive at St. James' Park on 8th November, before the Lasses travel just a few miles down the road for the first Tyne-Wear derby of the season at Sunderland on 15th November with United looking to extend their unbeaten run in this fixture since promotion to the WSL2.

Newcastle will also enter the Adobe Women's FA Cup - a competition which Oxtoby won three times during her time on the coaching staff at Chelsea - on 13th December. United have just one league fixture in December, at home to Watford - who won the FA Women’s National League Southern Premier Division last season - on the 20th.

Following the winter break, Newcastle return to action with a trip to Ipswich on 10th January 2027, which will mark three weeks since their last competitive fixture. However, the fixtures comes thick and fast at the start of 2027, with four league games in the first month including another St. James' fixture against Southampton and a midweek trip to Wolves.

February 7th sees United host Forest at the 52,000-capacity stadium and as the season heats up, Oxtoby's team will only leave the North East once in March as they also welcome both Durham and Sunderland to St. James' Park on the 14th and 28th respectively, with their only away trip seeing them make the relatively short trip down to Sheffield in between those two home fixtures.

The Magpies end the season at home against Bristol City, after successive away trips to Blackburn Rovers and the Robins rounded off their last two campaigns.

All fixtures are still subject to change.
