Roma midfielder Simone Perrotta admits that it will be a difficult task chasing down league-leaders Inter, but is hopeful that the Giallorossi will be able to do it.
Currently seven points behind the Nerazzurri with 11 matches to go, the Italian international knows that it will be tough against this weekend's opponents, Livorno.
"We are fighting for the Scudetto, and believe we can do it," the 32-year-old explained to TMW. "We will give it our all to reach Inter.
"Seven points seem a lot, but we can do it. The players are not tired, but we are going through a moment where we are not brilliant.
"It will not be easy against Livorno, even if a lot of people are saying the opposite. It is against these smaller teams, last season, that we lost a lot of points.
"Juventus are the side that are scaring us the most, in regards to a Champions League spot next season. They are recuperating really strongly after a bad period," he added.
