Roma welcome Inter to the Stadio Olimpico in Serie A in what is being described as a delicate time for the I Giallorossi.
Both teams experienced defeats in the midweek UEFA Champions League fixtures, as Roma fell 2-0 to Real Madrid whilst Inter lost 1-0 to Tottenham Hotspur, although Roma have already qualified and Inter must better Spurs result to progress to the knockout stages.
These two Serie A giants, who have been starved of silverware in recent years, are experiencing contrasting fortunes in the league this season.
Roma have won just five matches from 13 Serie A fixtures games, and were whistled off the pitch after their midweek defeat to Real Madrid, although it had been thought they had hit top gear once more after convincingly beating Sampdoria 4-1 earlier this month, before falling to Udinese just a week later.
