Wallabies coach Michael Cheika has been dealt a major blow with the news that centre Tevita Kuridrani will be missing when they meet England.
The powerful outside centre is suffering from an ankle injury that he picked up over the weekend against Ireland.
Cheika is expected to use either Ashley‑Cooper or Kurtley Beale in place of Kuridrani.
Australia have lost their last two Tests from Ireland and France and dropped to fifth in the world rankings this week which is their lowest‑ever position.
The Europe Tour matches for this week will see Australia taking on England and South Africa playing Wales with both matches kicking off at 3.30am this Sunday.
