AS Roma legend Francesco Totti believes fourth place is the best his old team can shoot for.

The Derby della Capitale is on Sunday and Totti intends to be in the stands of the Stadio Olimpico.

Totti said, “I could be there this weekend for the Rome Derby, it's still touch and go, but more likely yes than no. Simone Inzaghi has put together an excellent Lazio, even if Roma are stronger on paper. They are to be feared.

“This is certainly a different type of season for me, as watching Roma play on television on Sunday made me think. It's my decision and I continue to stand by it, but as a fan I hope the club can do something more in the final few days of the transfer window to ensure Roma can at least compete for a place in the Champions League.

“I hope that I'm wrong, but when you've been in football for 30 years, you have a good eye. I think many fans like me hope to see a great Roma that can get back into the Champions League and hope the club is working in that direction.

“I still maintain Juventus are the team to beat this season, as they are strong both as a team and a club, but this year Inter and Napoli reinforced and I see a different type of campaign.

“I think the top three are already decided, then anything can happen after that. Unfortunately, Roma can only hope to fight for fourth place. That is the reality of the situation, seeing what happened in pre-season.

“Napoli and Inter can trouble Juve to the end, but we all know that when they need to step on the gas, Juve do it all the way."
