Lazio Roma vs. Bologna FC
There will be exciting football from Italy again this weekend, as the 24th matchday in Serie A is on the agenda. Unlike last season, the battle for the Scudetto will probably only be decided in the final metres this year. On Saturday at 15:00 there will be the match between Lazio Rome and Bologna, among others. Especially for Lazio, the upcoming match will be extremely important and what we think about this game, you can read in our Lazio – Bologna tip.
The Laziali are currently in 6th place in the table and as you know, this would entitle them to participate in the Conference League. However, the Romans are aiming much higher and with 39 points, Roma is still breathing down their necks. Their upcoming opponents from Bologna, meanwhile, are in 13th place with 28 points and thus in no-man’s land in the table. For them, it will be primarily a matter of securing their place in the league as quickly as possible.

Lazio Form & Balance Check
It is once again looking strongly like a season will end for Lazio Roma without a title. The Laziali are a staggering 14 points behind Serie A leaders Inter Milan and the Romans also lost out in the Coppa Italia during the week. They had to face AC Milan in the San Siro, where the men from the capital were defeated 4-0. So the hopes of all Lazio supporters rest in the Europa League. However, a very difficult task awaits them there in the form of the Portuguese top club from Porto.
Offensive is the trump card
With sixth place and 39 points, Lazio fans can be quite satisfied. The first season after the departure of coach Simone Inzaghi is anyway only called a transitional season and the Romans then want to pick up again in the next season at the top. Despite the departure of top performer Correa, Lazio Roma’s attack is once again one of the best in the entire league this season. With 49 goals, Lazio have scored as many goals as Milan and only four goals less than Inter.
Lazio facts & analysis
– Lazio Roma are 6th in the table with 39 points.
– Seven points from the last three games.
– Already conceded 39 goals
Bologna form & balance check
The wait for a win at FC Bologna continues. A few days ago, there was the game against the table neighbours Empoli. Bologna clearly had more of the game, but in the end once again lacked the necessary power in the offensive. Thus, there were no goals for the spectators to see and Bologna continues to bob around in no man’s land in the table. Against Lazio, too, their own supporters can hardly have any hopes of finally getting a three-goal win again after four games without a win.
Arnautovic again luckless
One of the main reasons why things aren’t going so well for Bologna at the moment is that their attack is more than capable of improvement. 29 goals after 23 games is really not the world and with Marko Arnautovic, a striker was brought in before the season who definitely has his qualities in finishing. The Austrian came from China and cost 3 million euros in transfer fees. For Bologna, that is a lot of money and with six goals, he is already one of the most successful scorers of the 13th season. However, the former Werder Bremen player has been waiting for a goal since the end of October.
Bologna facts & analysis
– Four games without a win
– Arnautovic top scorer with six goals
– Last 0:0 against Empoli
Predicted line-up – last update on 10 February 2022
The hosts from Rome are targeting their third win from the last four games and the Romans will go with a 4-3-3 in the upcoming match. In attack, coach Sarri will again rely on Anderson, Immobile and Pedro. Next opponents Bologna will rely on a 3-5-2, with Arnautovic and Orsolini expected to fire the 13th-placed side to victory.
