Preview: Roma vs. Inter Milan

Roma will be looking to keep up the pressure on Serie A leaders Juventus when they host Inter Milan on Saturday evening.

Rudi Garcia's side currently sit nine points adrift of Juve in second place, but they do have a game in hand.

Roma's 1-0 victory at Bologna last weekend means that they have not lost any of their last six league matches.

Inter remain fifth in the standings but lost ground on the Champions League places after last Sunday's draw against Cagliari.

Roma defender Maicon has been ruled out through injury, while Miralem Pjanic and Francesco Totti are doubtful.

Inter's Hugo Campagnaro will miss the match with a tendon injury, but Rodrigo Palacio has recovered from a knock and is expected to start up front with Diego Milito.
