Bologna vs Lazio Prediction & Betting tips
Lazio’s Champions League dream seems to have ended prematurely this week. Can they turn their backs against Bologna on Saturday?
Bologna:
Sinisa Mihajlovic’s Bologna achieves the necessary points, but is not really convincing yet. In terms of player material, you can expect this team to be in the top ten, but at the moment they are twelfth. Bologna is five points behind number ten Sampdoria and even nine points behind number nine Verona. The month started with a boost, as it was won 3-0 against relegation candidate Parma. The real tests only came in the two games after that. Bologna took a 1-0 lead against Benevento in the first minute, but the visitors had the best chances in the remainder of the game and took a deserved point.
Last weekend, Bologna had the opportunity to get closer to the left row in a direct showdown with number eight Sassuolo, who is no longer in the top form it had at the start of this season. Again the Rossoblu scored an early goal but again the match ended in 1-1. This time, however, Bologna was lucky, the 18-year-old defender Aaron Hickey picked up a red card in the thirtieth minute, after which Sassuolo made a total of 32 shots, eleven of which came on target!
Lazio:
Lazio is doing well this year, especially against teams from the right-hand row. The year started with a 1-1 against Genoa but then all six games were won against teams from outside the top seven. In addition, Lazio achieved a nice 3-0 victory in the city derby and won 3-1 against Atalanta before the competition. Yet it was not all party time in Rome. It was eliminated by Atalanta for the cup and, moreover, two weeks ago it was lost 3-1 to Inter, which is now a real title contender.
The toughest test followed for Lazio last Tuesday when Bayern Munich visited. Beforehand, there was hope for a result given the Germans’ busy schedule and their recent results. This turned out to be just vain hope, after nine minutes Bayern got the lead in the lap after a bad pass back from Mateo Musacchio. Lazio was never a real threat and the 1-4 victory for Bayern means that Lazio is already practically eliminated.
