The long awaited return to away fixtures comes as the government scrapped all coronavirus restrictions, meaning fans can now travel to away games. They will also not have to social distance in the stadium as full capacity crowds return.

Wolves supporters enjoyed their last game on their travels, on March 1, 2020, when they came from behind twice to beat Spurs 3-2 – courtesy of a Raul Jimenez winner.

Now, 3,305 tickets – including 17 wheelchair accessible spaces – will go on sale to old gold fans for the club's opening game of the 2021/22 season, as they travel to face Leicester on August 14.

Tickets at the King Power Stadium will cost £30 for adults, £27 for over-65s and under-22s and £18 for under-18s.
