Fifth placed Roma can move into the Champions League places if beating Milan at home on Saturday. Milan are fourth in the table but only on goals scored as both sides have the same goal difference and the reverse fixture was drawn 2-2. Roma's season changed last week when not only did they lose at Atalanta but also see Juventus go ahead of them after having their points deduction reversed. The loss at Atalanta ended a run of three straight league wins with seven goals scored and none conceded. They have lost three of their last six in Serie A but they are still strong at home with ten league wins this season. Seven of their last eight home Serie A fixtures have been won, the other a surprise 4-3 loss to Sassuolo. 

Roma are in the Europa League semi-finals but their opponents are facing a Milan derby in the last four of the Champions League. It'd be a big blow for them if they failed to finish in the top four of Serie A meaning they'd need to win the Champions League to be in it next season. Milan had a poor run of form last month that saw them go four games without a win. They have improved since then and come into this tough away fixture unbeaten in six and that includes knocking Serie A leaders Napoli out of the Champions League. Away form in Serie A this season has been a bit inconsistent with six wins, five draws and the same number of losses. Only one of their last six away games in all competitions has been won, though that was a 4-0 win at Napoli. A double chance bet on Roma to win or draw is our suggested wager.
