Roma remain the narrow pick after extending their perfect start, although the latest prices show this is still a very finely balanced contest.

Prediction

Roma remain my narrow pick against Inter, with the published 2-1 lean still the best fit for two perfect starts. There are no usable confirmed lineups supplied to alter that view. Roma have drifted slightly from 2.62 to 2.77, while Inter have shortened from 2.83 to 2.61, but it is not a decisive reversal. Here's why the home edge still holds.

The original Roma lean stays in place. Both sides have now won their opening four Serie A matches, but Roma's table numbers remain the cleaner blend: 12 goals scored, only one conceded and a goal difference of plus 11. Inter have scored even more, with 13, but have allowed six. Their latest five matches also underline the difference in match profile: Roma have won all five listed fixtures and conceded once, while Inter's recent wins over Udinese and Napoli finished 5-3 and 3-2.

Lineup confirmation does not provide a reason to move away from the previous call. No usable confirmed starters are supplied, so there is no decisive absence or late team information that would justify changing a published prediction. The 2-1 Roma score lean remains coherent with Inter scoring in each of their last five listed games and Roma carrying the stronger defensive record.

The market has nudged against the home side without turning the fixture on its head. Roma have moved from 2.62 to 2.77, while Inter have shortened from 2.83 to 2.61; the draw has edged from 3.40 to 3.50. That makes Inter marginally better supported than before, but the movement is modest and Roma are not clear outsiders. For me, the slight home drift simply reinforces the need for caution rather than changing the pick. Roma at the Olimpico still have the marginal statistical edge, while BTTS and over 2.5 goals remain aligned with the likely 2-1 script.
