The Red and Blue are well on their way through the second half of the season, but they had a very disappointing match in the previous round. The team looked unexpectedly weak on offense in the away game against Torino, and after conceding in the middle of the first half, they did not create any real dangerous situations in front of the net. A very strange match from Bologna, which is already in eighth place in the standings and only seven points behind the Eurocup competitions. What's more, their defeat in Turin was only Bologna's second in the last eight rounds.
Lazio
Maurizio Sarri's side did the impossible in the last matchday with an away win against Napoli. Lazio took into account all the lessons from Inter, who also beat Napoli at the very beginning of the second half of the season and realized one of the few counterattacks. The game was won by a winning goal scored by midfielder Matías Vecino.
The epic victory over Napoli took all of Lazio's strength and emotions away since the 1:2 home defeat by AZ Alkmaar can no longer be explained. However, another factor in the failure was the absence of Ciro Immobile, who suffered another injury. One of the best forwards in Italy in recent years will also miss the upcoming meeting with Bologna.
Expert Betting Tips
Before the loss to Torino on the previous matchday, Bologna beat Inter 1:0 at home, so Lazio, especially playing after the conference league game, could also have problems at the Renato Dal'Ara. Given Rome's tough schedule, we'll bet on Bologna not to lose and on a low-scoring match. Lazio's offense loses a lot in efficiency without Ciro Immobile, and Bologna generally does not score much. In addition, Lazio has one of the best defenses of the season.
