Singapore v. Japan: Halilhodzic's men eyeing improvement

Japan travel to third-placed Singapore in World Cup qualifying on Thursday.

Vahid Halilhodzic wants to see a more clinical Japan as the Asian giants target back-to-back World Cup qualifying wins to close out the year.

Unbeaten Japan heads to third-placed Singapore for its fifth World Cup qualifier on Thursday.

Halilhodzic and Japan's road to Russia 2018 opened with an underwhelming goalless draw at home to Singapore in June.

Singapore had Mohamad Izwan bin Mahbud to thank in the Group E Asian qualifying contest in Saitama, after the goalkeeper produced a masterclass to deny the likes of Shinji Okazaki and Keisuke Honda.
