Roma captain Francesco Totti has targeted the Treble ahead of the club's biggest test - Sunday's top-of-the-table showdown with Juventus.

The Romans will carry a five-game winning streak in Serie A to Turin to face the defending champions.

"We've had a great start to the campaign," Totti said to Gazzetta dello Sport. "We have a competitive team and like our fans, we expect to do great things this year.

"We want to win the Scudetto, the Champions League and the Coppa Italia.

"Juve are the defending champions, they didn't sell any players and have reinforced themselves this summer.

"At this time we are the second team in Italy, the one that has to beat Juve, even if we know that we have great potential."

Roma held Manchester City to a 1-1 draw in Tuesday's Champions League encounter at the Etihad stadium in England to remain unbeaten this season.

The 38-year-old Totti struck the equaliser to become the oldest player ever to score in the Champions League.

Juve, meanwhile, saw their perfect start to the campaign come to an end with a 1-0 defeat at Atletico Madrid on Wednesday.
