The Socceroos are chasing a 12th straight win when they face Japan in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday night.
A limited number of fans will be allowed into the stands in Saitama with the Blue Samurai in need of a positive result after losing two of their last three qualifiers.
Australia have had no such issues and go into this game after beating Oman 3-1 in Qatar last week.
The Socceroos have historically struggled in Japan however and this match looms as an early blockbuster in the race to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.
