Charlton Athletic start their pre-season preparations with a trip to Dartford this evening.
The Addicks will also take on the likes of Gillingham and Reading in friendlies as they build towards the 2026/27 Championship season.
After being promoted via the League One play-offs in 2024/25, Nathan Jones' side enjoyed a strong start to last season.
However, their form dipped after Christmas and they eventually finished 19th in the table.
Jones will be hoping for a similar start to the new season but he will want his team to sustain any initial success.
The first friendly assignment comes against a Dartford team who ply their trade in the Isthmian League Premier Division, which is the seventh-tier of English football.
