Posted on | January 17, 2013 | No Comments

Roma vs Inter is one of the most expected Serie A derbies and even from Europe. The next derby between these teams will be played on Sunday.

This season is not too good for any of the team. Inter are forth in the standings seven points behind leader Juventus and two points behind third place, the last Champions League spot. Roma are currently sitting on sixth position with six points behind Inter. So this will be a six points game.

Theoretically both teams have chances for playing in Champion League next season but any bad steps from now on will drastically reduce the chances.

As Roma are the favorites against Inter and this is probably because of to the latest results between the teams. AS Roma have managed to won two of the last five games, while Inter have won only one. The other two games ended with a draw.

Roma have the best attack in Serie A but also one of the weakest defences with only Pescara and Cagliari behind them. The team top goalscorers are Lamela and Osvaldo both with 10 goals.

As for Inter they have the fourth defence and seventh attack. The team goalscorer is Diego Milito with only 8 goals.

Both teams will be missing some important players because of injuries. Osvaldo, Stekelenburg and Romagnoli are injured for Roma while Inter will not count on Stankovic, Castellazzi, Nagatomo, Alvarez Samuel and Cassano.

Inter and Roma will play also into the Coppa Italia semifinals. Roma past Fiorentina in the quarterfinals while Inter past Bologna.
