Tonight's trip to face Manchester is Nottingham's second away game of pre-season after last Monday's trip to Sheffield.
Head Coach, Danny Stewart, said: "Altrincham is a tough rink to play in and I think it's really good we are going there in pre-season.
"You go into that building and it forces you to play the right way. It forces you to compete and it forces you into puck battles.
"We have an early cup game against them in a couple of weeks, so it gives guys a taste of what it's like to go in there."
