AS Roma president James Pallotta insists they're a match for Juventus.

The two giants meet tomorrow night.

Pallotta said: "We are on the same level as Juventus and I'm not looking to just defend second place. I think that if we play the way we know how it'll be a very open match. We have to follow on from the victory over Feyenoord.

"What's frustrating is the number of injuries we've sustained, especially very serious ones like Kevin Strootman and Leandro Castan. If Juventus had been without players like Andrea Pirlo or Paul Pogba for most of the season, they'd be in the same situation as Roma."
