Needing a win and plenty of goals to stay in contention at the World Cup, Australia could finally call upon veteran Tim Cahill.
The 38-year-old striker has a chance to make his debut in Russia on Tuesday when Australia plays Peru.
The Socceroos need to beat already-eliminated Peru and hope France beats Denmark in the other Group C match. If that happens, goal differential would determine which team moves on to the next round along with the French.
Cahill knows a thing or two about scoring in soccer's showcase event. He can become only the fifth player to score in four World Cups, joining Pele, Uwe Seeler, Miroslav Klose and Cristiano Ronaldo.
"If Timmy's been called upon, no doubt he'll do a (good) job for us," Australia defender Aziz Behich said.
"Timmy is a true professional, it shows the way he works on the pitch in training every day and he's just a proper example for all of us, not just the young boys. Mentally, he's always strong and ready to go, so we love having Tim as a part of our group and we all know what he can do."
"While I'm sure (Cahill) is frustrated that he's not had his shot yet, the amount of help that he gives to the players around him ... is unbelievable."
