"Nissan Stadium is where the Rugby World Cup 2019 final will take place, so I'm sure the players will relish the opportunity to play at such a meaningful stadium against one of the best teams in the world. We can't wait."
The Michael Cheika-coached Wallabies play the Brave Blossoms on Nov. 4 before heading to Europe for their traditional season-ending tour.
Australia have won all four previous tests against Japan, including a 13-try, 91-3 drubbing in Lyon at the 2007 World Cup.
