But the 32-year-old striker insists he has made no decision on his international future with Australia.
He said: "I am going to have a rest this time round."
Viduka has 53 caps and 11 goals for the Socceroos and he has been captain for the past couple of years.
And when asked if he had decided to bring the curtain down on his international career, he replied: "No I haven't. I have not been involved for the past few games and I'm missing this one out.
"But I don't know what I'm going to do. I will wait and see who the new coach is as everything is up in the air at the moment."
