The friendly matches are ahead of the inaugural UEFA Women’s Nations League draw in May. The fixtures will serve as preparation for the tournament, which will commence in early Autumn.
The Scotland squad will have a training base in southern England to prepare for the Matildas, before travelling home to host Costa Rica.
SWNT Head Coach Pedro Martinez Losa: “Playing against the World Cup hosts Australia is a fantastic opportunity. They’ll be looking to go into those games positively and we’ll be prepared for that.
“Costa Rica will be a very different challenge for us – they have some top players from across Europe and beyond.
“Facing two teams of this calibre will provide a good test for the squad as we continue to prepare for the start of the UEFA Women’s Nations League.
“We are looking to build on the recent wins against Panama and Philippines as well as the positive aspects of our performances against Venezuela, Iceland and Wales.
“The matches will provide more opportunities for players whilst continuing to build the team that we want to become ahead of the UEFA EURO 2025 qualifiers.”
