Juve are at home to Bologna earlier on Saturday, meaning the gap could be 11 points before Roma's kick-off.
Roma attacking midfielder Adem Ljajic takes on his former club, but his future may lay elsewhere as he looks for regular opportunities.

Fiorentina sit fourth and still have slim hopes of finishing third and sealing a place in the qualifiers for the UEFA Champions League.
Napoli, who occupy third place, travel to Udinese on Saturday and would need a late-season form slump to give up the spot they sit nine points clear in.
Inter cling onto the final UEFA Europa League place ahead of a crucial clash at Parma.
Walter Mazzarri's men are two points clear of Parma, who will be desperately chasing all three points to move into fifth.

Catania, who would need a miracle to avoid the drop, host Sampdoria, and a win would bring them to within five points of safety.
Elsewhere, lower-table sides Genoa and Cagliari do battle, Atalanta host Verona and Lazio welcome Torino to the Stadio Olimpico.
