Newcastle United Under-23s will face two friendlies next month - both away fixtures against Blyth Spartans and Liverpool respectively.
Chris Hogg's side will make the short trip to Croft Park to face Blyth Spartans on Tuesday, 3rd August (kick-off 7.30pm BST).
Newcastle's second-string will then face their Liverpool counterparts on Sunday, 8th August at the Reds' Kirkby Academy, with kick-off taking place at 1pm (BST).
Blyth, managed by former Hartlepool United defender Michael Nelson, currently ply their trade in the National League North, the sixth tier of English football.
The two sides last met in the Northumberland Senior Cup back in February 2019 as Newcastle progressed into the semi-finals following a 7-2 thrashing of the Green Army at Whitley Park.
Liverpool's youngsters compete in Division One of the Premier League 2, finishing in seventh place last term.
