Town will play two friendlies, each an hour long, against Ukrainian Premier League champions Shakhtar Donetsk on Saturday 20th July at the end of their pre-season camp in Austria.
The two matches will be played at Sportzentrum Landskron, Villach at the conclusion of the week’s training.
This year the squad will be based at Carinthia, a different venue to last summer’s training camp which was hosted by lower division side SC LAA in Laa an der Thaya, north of Vienna.
The Blues played two friendlies at the end of the camp a year ago, a 2-1 victory over Slovakian side Spartak Trnava, before an entirely different XI drew 2-2 with Flyeralarm Admira.
Later in the summer, the club made a second trip to Austria for the Innsbruck Cup, which they won, beating RB Leipzig 1-0 having drawn 1-1 with Werder Bremen.
