Del Neri v Mancini

The current Roma and Inter coaches have met in competitive fixtures on 5 previous occasions. Del Neri has the edge with 2 victories to 1.

Del Neri & coaching debuts

Gigi Del Neri faces Roberto Mancini for the third time in four Serie A starts (the former Chievo coach took over at Roma after Week 4). He beat Mancini in Fiorentina 0-2 Chievo in 2001/02 and in Lazio 2-3 in 2002/03.

Inter's second-half form decisive

After four rounds of the 2004/05 Serie A, Inter have come back from behind to earn five points in the second halves of matches - more points than any other club.

Davids, Stankovic & Ze Maria v Roma

Edgar Davids, Dejan Stankovic and Ze Maria have scored more against Roma than any other Italian team. The Dutch midfielder scored in Juventus' matches at home to the Giallorossi in 1997/98 and 1999/00. Stankovic has scored three against Roma, AC Milan, Parma and Panionios, while Ze Maria has netted a hat-trick of goals against Roma and Modena.

Serie A: Inter on target in 11 consecutive away matches

Inter have scored at least one goal in each of their last 11 Serie A away matches (total 22 goals scored). The Nerazzurri's last goal drought on the road was on 10 January 2004 when they lost 1-0 to Parma at the Tardini.

Roma on target at home for 35 consecutive matches

Excluding the Champions League match at home to Dynamo Kiev (the Ukraine side given a 3-0 forfeit win), Roma have scored at least one goal in their last 35 matches at the Olimpico (total 77 goals). The 1-0 loss to Valencia on 18 February 2003 was the last time they failed to score at home.

Totti one away from century of Serie A goals

Giallorossi captain Francesco Totti has scored 99 Serie A goals. His first top-flight strike was a decade ago when Roma were held 1-1 at home to Foggia on 4 September 1994.

ROME - Roma and Inter played out a spectacular 3-3 draw at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday evening. Ninety breathtaking minutes of end-to-end football saw two Argentine midfielders open their scoring accounts for the Nerazzurri.

After a bright start to the match, the Giallorossi took the lead on nine minutes. A.Mancini's right-wing cross fell to Vincenzo Montella, who controlled with his chest then smashed home at the far post.

Roberto Mancini was forced to make a tactical switch just before half time, bringing on Edgar Davids for an injured Obafemi Martins, who failed to reccover from a crunching De Rossi tackle. Inter's equaliser couldn't have come at a better moment, Esteban Cambiasso scoring his first Nerazzurri goal in additional time. Unmarked in the middle of the Roma box, the Argentine midfielder jumped to meet Recoba's pin-point left-wing cross and power a header past Pelizzoli.

A perfect start to the second half saw Veron and Recoba open up a two-goal lead for Inter. On 51 minutes the Argentine's volley from El Chino's corner took a deflection off Mexes, giving Pelizzoli no chance of repositioning. Three minutes after Veron's first goal in black and blue the Uruguayan raced past Mexes before sending a powerful left-footed shot into the top left-hand corner.

Roma reduced the deficit soon after when Totti made it a century of Serie A goals with a majestic 30-yard free kick, then Daniele De Rossi equalised with fifteen minutes left to play, stabbing home from close range after Dellas headed Totti's free kick back across the area.

Inter went close to a winner in a frenetic finale. Adriano sent a blistering long-range free kick just over the Roma crossbar, then in time added on Burdisso received inside the Giallorossi box from Cristiano Zanetti, but couldn't get a shot in.
