England and Australia face off at Wembley for a rare friendly meeting between the two sides this week.
The match is billed as the second leg of a double-header, the first of which took place in the spring between the two countries’ women’s teams - and which went the way of the Aussies.
Gareth Southgate’s men are big favourites to reverse that scoreline on Friday night even if he is expected to play a weakened team.
Australia impressed at the winter World Cup by reaching the knockouts and are preparing to return to Qatar for the Asian Cup in January.
England are warming up for next summer’s Euros after producing a convincing victory in a friendly away to Scotland last time out.
England vs Australia team news
The Three Lions are without Bukayo Saka after he withdrew from the international period at the start of the week, having undergone assessments on his leg injury at St. George’s Park.
Southgate is expected to experiment with opportunities for his fringe players in this friendly, given the Euro 2024 qualifier against Italy is just around the corner.
Levi Colwill and Eddie Nketiah will hope to make their debuts while there could be minutes for Aaron Ramsdale, Fikayo Tomori, Jarrod Bowen and Ollie Watkins.
For the Socceroos, Jackson Irvine is fit after an ankle injury and Hibernian defender Lewis Miller is one of three who could earn a debut.
