Lazio vs Bologna

, KO: 19:45 Nov 24, 2024, Stadio Olimpico
Bologna

Serie A could have a new leader at the end of this round and Lazio are one of six teams that have equal chances to make it to the top. But in order for this to happen, they have to beat Bologna.

The Eagles are easily having their best period of the decade. The team is sitting on nine wins in the last 10 rounds, with the one defeat coming to Juventus. They sit uncontested at the top of the Europa League table and just two points behind Napoli in Serie A.

And then we have Bologna, who finally found their form and won their last three Serie A games. But the three wins are part of a more impressive streak of nine games unbeaten in the league, although five of those games were draws.

Bologna have lost only once this season but Lazio look like a team that could change this. Only two teams have scored more goals than the Eagles, who are unbeaten at home accross all competitions (7 wins, 1 draw).

How the bookies view it: The Eagles will prey on the Greyhounds

Bologna have improved immensely but not enough to convince bookmakers to give them a chance. Betano gave Lazio 9/10 to win on Sunday, while the visitors sit at 11/3. The draw is currently available at 33/14.

Recent head to head: Can Bologna make it three in a row?

You may be surprised to hear that Bologna won the last two H2Hs from the previous season. After all, it was the best campaign in their history. But before that recent away win, Bologna last won at this stadium in 2012. Lazio have had the upper hand in this rivalry and usually beat them by a lot.

Players to watch: Stadio Olimpico's favourite scorer

Boulaye Dia has been Lazio's talisman this season and his goals won them plenty of points already. The Senegalese striker has six goals in all competitions but the important fact is that he scored all of them at home. We like his chances to shine again and the odds revolve around 15/8.

Probable line-ups

Lazio: Provedel, Marusic, Gila, Romagnoli, Pellegrini, Vecino, Rovella, Guendouzi, Pedro, Dia, Zaccagni

Bologna: Skorupski, Posch, Beukema, Casale, Miranda, Freuler, Moro, Orsolini, Odgaard, Karlsson, Castro

Anything else catch the eye?

While all of Bologna's home games this season have been unders, they covered the Over 2.5 line five times out of six games on the road. They average 3.5 goals per game away from home.

The same can be said about Lazio but on their home turf. All eight of their home games in all competitions this season ended with at least three goals at FT. More importantly, Lazio have scored 2+ goals in every match to date.

Bologna are a nice addition to the usual group of teams in good form but we have to back Lazio to win this time. The stakes are high and the Eagles cannot miss this opportunity, especially with teams like Napoli having far tougher fixtures on their hands.
