Bologna vs Lazio prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-03-15 14:00.
[p]Three consecutive victories – all by a 2-1 scoreline – have lifted Bologna into the race for the top four, which they trail by just two points pre-round. Only once in the last 55 years have they managed four Serie A wins in succession, but that encouragingly came last season en route to UEFA Champions League qualification and included a 2-1 win over upcoming opponents Lazio.[/p]
[p]Only against Roma (54) have Bologna won more times in Serie A than against Lazio (48), while a return of three wins from the last four league meetings on their own turf without conceding a single goal (D1) offers plenty of encouragement. As does recent form at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara against any opposition, where theyâve won six successive matches and lost just once in the last 11 across all competitions (W9, D1).[/p]
[p]Lazio are bound to be confident of ending their recent woes on this ground, as they boast a four-game unbeaten run of their own (W2, D2), capped off by a 1-1 draw against Viktoria PlzeĆ on Thursday that confirmed their place in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League. Marco Baroniâs men can leapfrog Bologna with a win here, while it would also mark the Eaglesâ first H2H league double since 2004/05.[/p]
[p]Lazio may be unbeaten in six league matches (W3, D3), but three draws from their last four such matches has seen their top four bid lose momentum. Only the top three have accumulated more points on the road than their 25 pre-round, so the travelling supporters will be confident having seen their last ten league trips produce seven wins (D1, L2), with the hosts on the day receiving a red card in four of those fixtures [/p]
[p]Players to watch: Santiago Castroâs last two home goals were equalisers in games Bologna went on to win. Mattia Zaccagniâs ten Lazio strikes this term were all in victories, and he could be front and centre of the action here having netted three times and received two yellow cards in his last five league H2Hs.[/p]
[p]Hot stat: Lazio have scored a league-high 14 goals beyond the 80th minute this season.[/p]
