Roma have constantly been between fifth and seventh place in Serie A in the last six years, with deep Europa League runs occasionally. It seems they are not good enough to compete with the very best teams in Italy. This year, the "Giallorossi" haven't had the best start as they are in 9th place with ten points in seven rounds. Still, they are just three points away from the Champions League spots, and with a potential win, they would take a massive leap. Their goal this year is undoubtedly to secure a top-four spot and return to the Champions League after a six-year wait.
Inter came to this season after winning their 20th Scudetto in dominant fashion. So, we must consider last season a success, but the impression is that they could have done much better in Cup competitions. This year, Nerazzurri once again started the season well, as they are in second place with 14 points in seven rounds - two points away from the top spot. But that shouldn't really be a surprise, considering they kept their squad almost intact over the Summer. Currently, the bookies see them as the big favorite to win the Scudetto with the odds of only 1.65-1.7.
Roma vs Inter pick: Both teams to score
Roma have been far from impressive offensively this season. However, at home, they are scoring regularly and have scored at least a goal in all four games. So, we can expect a goal at home against Inter, which only had one clean sheet in four road games.
Inter went on a three-game winning streak before the international break. They scored ten goals in that perioud - 3.33 per game! So, scoring at least a goal against anyone, even on the road, should be a lock. Additionally, Inter have been great for the BTTS bet away from home as 75% of their games finished with both teams scoring.
In the previous h2h game at Stadio Olimpico, Inter won 4:2.
Considering Roma's goalscoring record at home, Inter's potent offense, and good form, we believe that both teams should score in this Serie A game.

Roma team news
In his interview a few days ago, coach Ivan Juric spoke about the team. He said he is aware of the criticism but is focused on his work and that the performances are clearly improving. "The team has incredible room for improvement. I see guys willing to make sacrifices," the Croatian coach added. The coach also said they need to be better at converting goalscoring chances because they are creating chances but aren't clinical.
Stephan El Shaarawy suffered an injury in the previous game against Monza and will miss the upcoming game. Alexis Saelemaekers should remain sidelined, while Paulo Dybala and Mats Hummels, who missed the previous game, should be ready for the Inter game.

Inter team news
Midfielder Piotr Zielinski picked up an injury during the international break and will not be ready for the Roma match. According to Italian media reports, the 30-year-old midfielder will most likely be sidelined for the next two matches against Roma and Juventus.
On the other hand, Nicolo Barella is back in full training after missing the previous three Serie A games due to a thigh injury. We expect him to be in the starting lineup against Roma.
