Aurelio Vidmar will take charge of Australia for the first time when they meet Benito Floro's men in Tuesday's friendly and our tipster expects a clean sheet for the visitors

Australia begin life without coach Holger Osieck when they take on Canada in an international friendly at Craven Cottage on Tuesday evening.
The 65-year-old German oversaw World Cup 2014 qualification for Australia but was sacked on Friday in the wake of a humiliating 6-0 reverse against France in Paris – a result which came just a month after the Socceroos were also beaten 6-0 by Brazil. 
Australia have conceded an astonishing 19 goals in their last four matches and caretaker boss Aurelio Vidmar will hope that Tuesday's tussle against lowly Canada will provide his side with a much-needed boost.
Despite their recent dip in form, Australia are available at just 4/6 (1.67) with BetVictor to get the better of Benito Floro's men when they meet in west London.
Canada are in a dire run of form themselves, having managed just two goals in their last 11 matches – a sequence of results triggered by an 8-1 humbling against Honduras.
