On Saturday, Bologna will play Lazio, which is third in Serie A, at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara.
Monday’s 1-0 home loss to Torino prevented the hosts from making it three wins in a row. Despite the defeat, they remained in eighth place in the league table, while seventh-place Juventus also lost to Roma in their league match.
In contrast, Lazio made it three wins in a row with a 1-0 victory over league leaders Napoli at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona thanks to a goal by Matias Vecino in the second half. In the UEFA Europa Conference League, they were unable to maintain their momentum, losing to AZ Alkmaar 2-1 in the first leg of the round of 16.

Bologna vs Lazio Prediction :
This season, the Rossoblù have scored in all but two of their home Serie A games, and they are likely to do so in this one as well. In their last three home games against the visitors, they have scored at least two goals.
Lazio has won both of their matches this season against their northern rivals, and they will be hoping to make it three wins in a row. However, we anticipate that manager Maurizio Sarri will rest key players ahead of the Conference League’s second leg against Alkmaar, and they may settle for a draw in this match.
Prediction: Bologna 1-1 Lazio
Bologna vs Lazio Head to Head :
Since 1928, the two teams have fought 158 times in all competitions. They have fought hard in these games, and the hosts have a small lead of 58-57, with 43 games ending in a draw. In all competitions, Lazio has won 18 of their last 20 games against Bologna.
This will be the third time the two teams will meet this season, with Lazio winning the previous two contests. In the opposite match, they beat Bologna 2-1, and in the Coppa Italia in January, they beat them 1-0. Both games were played at the Stadio Olimpico.
In their two most recent home encounters with Lazio, Bologna has won both times while keeping clean sheets. In their last nine games, Lazio has scored less than 2.5 goals in eight of those games and kept five clean sheets. This season, the visitors have the second-best defensive record in Serie A, having kept eight clean sheets in 12 away games and conceding 19 goals in 25 games.
Bologna vs Lazio Team News :
Maurizio Sarri’s arrangements for battling on two fronts – at home and in Europe – were hit recently, as star striker Ciro Stationary was controlled out of the loss to AZ and he may now be sidelined for up to a fortnight.
While Lazio’s captain hopes to return in time for the Derby della Capitale later this month, Felipe Anderson, the Brazilian playing in a “false nine” role, should cover his latest absence from an injury-plagued season. Pedro, who is still shielding his broken nose with a mask, will join Mattia Zaccagni and Anderson in the visitors’ front three.
Luis Alberto has previously contributed six assists in the midfield against Bologna in Serie A, and Manuel Lazzari plays right back in place of Adam Marusic in defense.
Marko Arnautovic of Bologna recently made a full recovery from an injury that kept him out for several weeks. However, Musa Barrow may be kept in place at the front because Arnautovic has argued with coach Thiago Motta.
While Riccardo Orsolini is a certain selection on the right flank, Barrow has been involved in four goals in two home appearances against Lazio in Serie A, including one of his own and three assists: The latter is responsible for six of the hosts’ seven most recent league goals.
Gary Medel could start more and more often to give Motta some toughness in the lineup. Nicolas Dominguez, who missed last week with an injury, could also try to take Nikolas Moro’s place in the middle of the field.
