The Socceroos will take on Lebanon in their final match before the Asian Cup gets underway. The game will be played at ANZ Stadium on Tuesday, November 20, with kick-off scheduled for 7:30pm (AEDT).

This might be built as a friendly match, but for Graham Arnold, there is plenty on the line as he tests new combinations and players ahead of their Asian Cup defence.

Australia won the tournament when it was held Down Under in 2015, but they will need to do the job in the United Arab Emirates when the tournament kicks off in January.

The Australians will also be bidding farewell to their highest ever goal-scorer and one of the greatest players the nation has ever produced, Tim Cahill, who will play his final international fixture in this match.
