loss. Furthermore, their unbeaten streak spans across 10 consecutive games in

In the
recent league match, Lazio secured a 1-0 victory over Fiorentina at home. Over
the last five games, Lazio have recorded four wins and one loss, displaying a
strong run of form. Currently, they hold the seventh position in the Serie A
standings with a record of five wins, one draw, and four losses. As a
traditional powerhouse in Serie A, Lazio’s performance this season can be
considered merely satisfactory. Looking at the statistics, Lazio have scored 13
goals and conceded 12 in the league so far. While their offense has performed
well, there have been defensive vulnerabilities. Furthermore, Lazio’s away
performances have been inconsistent. They have managed two wins and three
losses in their five away games in the league. They have experienced defeats
against Lecce but have also shown their ability to overcome strong opponents
like Napoli.
Although
Bologna’s fame and overall strength are not as strong as Lazio’s, they are not
afraid of playing against strong opponents. Furthermore, out of their five home
games this season, they have achieved three wins, one draw, and only one loss
against AC Milan. Notably, even strong teams like Napoli were unable to secure
a victory at Bologna’s home ground. Additionally, in their previous four
encounters with Lazio at home, Bologna have managed to remain unbeaten, with
two wins and two draws. Considering Lazio’s inconsistent away performances,
there is reason to be optimistic that Bologna can maintain their strong form
and defend their home ground in the upcoming match.
