    Totti out for Rome derby?

    With a week to go to the Roman derby, Roma look to be favourites despite their 1-0 loss to Inter, having secured five straight league wins beforehand.

    Though Lazio are in a heck of a state, two things have to be taken into account: firstly, it's a Derby della Capitale, and they're as unpredictable as they come. Secondly, everything isn't exactly going Roma's way either, anyway.

    With Edin Dzeko still unable to score his second Serie A goal, things look shaky in attack for the Giallorossi, who will very likely have to do without talisman Francesco Totti.

    Known for playing to his full potential against Roma's hated nemesis, Francesco Totti did it again last season with his side 2-0 down at half-time, netting a second-half brace which included a spectacular scissor-kick.



    According to Il Messaggero, Totti doesn't want to rush his recovery, and will continue his rehabilitation program, which include a lot of work in the swimming pool.

    His objective is to be back for the Bologna match... on the 21st November. Ah.
