Roma captain Francesco Totti has vowed his team will fight to the last minute of the season to secure Champions League football next term.
Roma head into Sunday's clash at Fiorentina in sixth spot - four points behind fourth-placed Udinese.
Totti reckons he and his team-mates have the character to up their challenge and has promised they will battle to the end.
"To play next season in the Champions League is our aim," said Totti, who scored twice against Lazio last weekend.
"There are nine games left to play and we will do all we can to achieve our aim.
"We believe we can produce an important season finale.
"We must maintain this fighting spirit until the last minute of the last day.
"There is still a lot to be decided this season."
Roma coach Vincenzo Montella is set to stick by the team that beat Lazio at the weekend, with only striker Mirko Vucinic unavailable through suspension.
The Giallorossi have yet to lose in the domestic front under Montella with 10 points collected in their last four matches.
Fiorentina go into Sunday's match at the Artemio Franchi stadium looking to make it three wins in a row.
Last weekend's 1-0 triumph at Chievo lifted Fiorentina to eighth in the standings, nine points behind Roma.
"I always said that as soon as our injury list was reduced, we would improve," said Fiorentina coach Sinisa Mihajlovic.
"My players have gained confidence and are playing well.
"Now we must prepare as best as we can for the game against Roma, which will be a test to see where we are at."
