Mark Milligan believes Tim Cahill is raring and ready to fire for Australia if he takes the field against Peru.
With Andrew Nabbout unavailable to face the Peruvians because of his shoulder injury, a new striker will be selected for the final Group C game.
Cahill, Australia's record goal-scorer, has yet to feature in Russia and neither has fellow forward Jamie Maclaren.
Milligan admits he has no idea if coach Bert van Marwijk will select the 38-year-old or not, but knows that if given the chance Cahill will be fully prepared.
"I have no idea what's going to happen in this next game," the midfielder said.
"We have three strikers chomping at the bit at the minute to put their hand up for this next match. I guess all the talk about Timmy and all that, you guys don't see what we see in camp.
"While I'm sure undoubtedly he's frustrated he's not had his shot yet, the amount he gives to the players around him, including talking today before training, is unbelievable.
"What happens on Tuesday I'm not sure, what I do know is if Timmy's called upon he'll be more than ready."
