Last year, TNS had to play their Europa League qualifier against FC Midtjylland at the Cardiff City Stadium.
The game will kick off at 18:30, with tickets priced at £10 for General Sale.
TNS’ opening game of the Cymru Premier season against Caernarfon Town, scheduled for the 16th August, will now be moved.
