We begin at 11.30 GMT with Inter travelling to the Stadio Bentegodi against winless Hellas.
Fiorentina try to end their crisis with Lecce at 14.00 GMT, while Torino take on Alberto Gilardino’s Pisa.
Parma vs. Bologna is a local derby at 17.00 GMT, but Roma can go clear at the top of the table, or be caught by AC Milan in the San Siro showdown at 19.45 GMT.
Max Allegri admits Roma ‘deserved to take the lead in the first 35 minutes,’ but AC Milan held out and secured the victory. ‘The team has to gain self-belief, it’s a process.’
Gian Piero Gasperini sees the glass half-full for Roma after defeat to AC Milan, despite ‘regret’ at wasted chances, but ‘the biggest loss is Paulo Dybala’s injury.’

That was the first penalty that Dybala failed to convert in the Roma jersey, as he hadn’t gone without scoring from the spot in any competitive match since November 30, 2021 for Juventus against Salernitana.
Milan emerged victorious at San Siro on Sunday evening with a 1-0 win over Roma. Football Italia’s Man of the Match was Rossoneri goalkeeper Mike Maignan.

AC Milan caught Roma in joint second place to move within a point of leaders Napoli thanks to Strahinja Pavlovic’s counter-attack and Mike Maignan parrying the Paulo Dybala penalty.
Click here for the full match report.
Gianluca Mancini is booked for dissent and keeps arguing, so needs to calm down there.
Tomori on, Leao off to a standing ovation.
Another Roma cross in, Dovbyk header on, but Ndicka foul in the crowd.
Gabbia and Mancini have a coming together as Roma win a corner, Maignan gets involved too. It was a big pile-up of players.
We go into 4 minutes of added time.
Paulo Dybala misses the chance to equalise from the spot ❌

More bad news for Roma! It turns out Dybala hurt himself during the penalty, he said he felt a muscular twinge!
Nkunku off, Loftus-Cheek on for Milan.
Baldanzi and Tsimikas on for Roma, Dybala and Hermoso off.
Hermoso and Pavlovic get into a row, Pavlovic goes down clutching his face when if anything he ran into Hermoso… The Roma man is booked for… something.
Maignan took forever to get on his line for that and it paid off, because he got into Dybala’s head and more importantly got down to the right corner and palmed the penalty out of the bottom corner!
Dybala to take. Maignan trying to put him off.
Pellegrini free kick into the wall, Fofana jumped with elbow raised and jutting out to charge it down!
Dovbyk lay-off for Pellegrini, who is fouled by Fofana on the edge of the area. Fofana is fuming and even more so after a yellow card. The card was perhaps more for the protest than the foul itself, as they both went for that loose ball.
Dovbyk on for Roma, Celik off. Very attacking move.
Oof! Modric free kick cleared as far as Leao, Celik brings him down with a clattering crash and is also shown a yellow card.
