AS Roma coach Claudio Ranieri is convinced they can win the title.
Roma have been able to turn their form around in recent games.
Ranieri said: "This team is equipped to fight it out with all the big clubs.
"Obviously it will be difficult but I like difficult things. I always give myself the objective of finishing as high as possible and I will do everything to do it.
"Without taking anything away from Milan, for me Inter are the real team to beat. Leonardo has brought back enthusiasm and we have to go fast to race with them."
Reminded of the arguments he has had with several first team players, Ranieri said: "Every Coach must put their own character in front of everything.
"I am always myself. I don't believe that I have a bad relationship with my lads. Then again, you'd need to ask them, not me."
