Jose Mourinho and his men will try to derail Inter's rise to the top when they lock horns this Saturday at Stadio Olimpico.

One of the most interesting games in the Italian Serie A will be the one between Roma and Inter, two of the top five teams in the top-tier category in the country. Roma will get to this place trying to shorten the gap between them and the leading pack, while a win for Inter could see them rise to the top spot of the tournament.

Roma enter this game with three wins in their last four matches across all comps, but their defeat against Bologna this past midweek hindered their chances of making a run for the top three spots. Mourinho's men have struggled for consistency, and their loss against one of the lower-ranked teams in the tournament is a testament to their shaky form.

The Giallorossi have shown good form at home, collecting two wins in their last four games. Their only loss came to AC Milan back in October, but since that defeat Mourinho's men have won two and drawn one. Their chances of success will be vastly improved if Jordan Veretout and Henrikh Mkhitaryan can team up for Roma, given the absences of Lorenzo Pellegrini and Tammy Abraham.

On the other side of the pitch, Inter will want to continue their string of good results that has seen them cut the gap between the league leaders and themselves to only two points. Inter came back from the international break to win four in a row, with three of those coming in the Italian top-flight. In fact, their last three games have seen them score twice each time without conceding, which gives us an idea on how balanced Simone Inzaghi's team is.

Speaking of individual performances, Inter will want to get their attacking duo of Edin Dzeko and Lautaro Martínez involved in the game as swiftly as possible. These strikers have combined for 41% of Inter's goals in the Serie A season, and their contribution at Stadio Olimpico could be key to see them top the charts if things go their way in this game and in Napoli's match.

Let's have a closer look at some stats and facts ahead of this interesting match scheduled for Saturday evening.

Roma - Injured: Leonardo Spinazzola, Lorenzo Pellegrini. Suspended: Rick Karsdrop, Tammy Abraham. Ineligible: Gonzalo Villar, Felix Afena-Gyan.
