There are some huge fixtures in Serie A this weekend including the meeting between Roma and Inter.
The game will be played at the Stadio Olimpico on the 6th of May and the hosts are currently 6th in the table on 58 points while the visitors are in 4th place on 60 points.
Roma come into the match on the back of a 1-1 draw at Monza in Serie A on Wednesday night. It was Roma who opened the scoring in the 24th minute but they did not lead for long and Monza scored the equaliser 15 minutes later. Roma were reduced to 10 men at the end of the match and it was 2 points dropped in the battle for the top four.
The draw at Monza means Roma have failed to win any of their 4 most recent fixtures. They have been held by Monza away and AC Milan at home in Serie A plus lost 3-1 at Atalanta in Serie A. The only victory in Roma’s last 4 matches has come in the Europa League and they beat Feyenoord 4-1 at home after extra-time.
Trends show Roma have won 3 of their last 8 Serie A games. They have a good record of 20 undefeated matches in their last 24 home encounters in Serie A and have lost only 1 of their last 10 home league games. Roma have managed to score 1 or more goals in their last 10 home matches in Serie A.
Inter travel to the Italian capital having recorded a comfortable 6-0 win at Hellas Verona in Serie A on Wednesday night. It took 31 minutes for Inter to make the breakthrough but two goals followed quickly after to see Inter go in 3-0 up at the interval. Inter continued to attack after the interval and scored 3 more goals to seal the victory.
The win in Verona means Inter are undefeated in their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins over Empoli and Hellas Verona away in Serie A, Lazio at home in Serie A, and Juventus at home in the Coppa Italia. Inter were held to a 3-3 draw at home by Benfica in the Champions League but that was enough to see them progress.
Inter are undefeated in their last 3 away Serie A matches. They have scored goals in 7 of their last 9 away trips in the league but have achieved just 2 wins in 13 away encounters with Roma in Serie A.
Team news and Roma are without injured defender Marash Kumbulla. He is the only player unavailable for the hosts.
Inter are without injured midfielder Robin Gosens and have doubts over the fitness of defender Milan Skriniar.
The race for the top four in Italy is fantastic and both Roma and Inter have a chance of qualifying for the Champions League.
We expect to see plenty of goals in this game, with both teams scoring but it is difficult to split them. Roma are tough to beat at home but Inter are in good form and this one could end level, with 2-2 a potential final score.
