Roma striker Mirko Vucinic has stressed the importance of securing Champions League qualification this season.
The Giallorossi made a dismal start to their Serie A campaign, but they have rallied since beating Lazio in the Derby della Capitale.
Luciano Spalletti's side are currently seven points behind fourth-placed Napoli.
“We can get into the Champions League and I really hope we do,” Vucinic told La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The whole team is in good form at the moment and we have rediscovered our confidence. It would be a total failure to miss out on the top four.
“I think Inter are hot favourites in the Scudetto race, but Milan and Juventus are on the same level.”
Roma also need to concentrate on the Champions League and they can win Group A by beating Bordeaux next week.
“A draw would be enough to get through, but it would undoubtedly dampen our enthusiasm,” Vucinic stressed.
“We want to win and qualify in first place because that would be a huge boost for morale.”
