Ranieri turned around Roma's fortunes after replacing Luciano Spalletti as the team's head coach in September.
The Giallorossi, who extended their winless streak to seven games before the winter break, moved up to fourth in his table under his guidance.
They have 28 points from 17 matches, 11 behind runaway leaders Inter.
"Inter will win the Scudetto. They are the ones who can lose it," Ranieri told Corriere Dello Sport.
"Are Roma the anti-Inter? I hope so, but we have lost time. However, we are climbing back. It would be nice to catch the Nerazzurri, but only they can lose the league."
