Juventus fullback Danilo believes their clash with Roma will be decisive in the title race.

Juve go into the game full of confidence after winning the Supercoppa and beating Inter Milan in the first-leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal.

“I believe Roma are one of the best teams in Italy, as they have a strong coach and quality players. I think they could win the Scudetto," Danilo told Sky Italia.

The Bianconeri are also marching back up the table, making this a head-to-head for third place, as they have been transformed since shaking off the 2-0 defeat at Inter.

“It was a bit of everything that changed, from the psychological attitude to what we do on the pitch. That was a tough defeat, but we had been playing well for a couple of games before that too.

“I maintain the teams that believe in their capabilities are those who learn something from defeat, change their attitude, and that is what Juventus did."
