The Serie A returns to the fold with another round of important games this weekend as Lazio lock horns with Bologna on Sunday. Both teams have been inconsistent this season and will want to win this game.
Bologna are in 11th place in the Serie A standings and have slumped after a strong start to their campaign. The home side suffered a 4-2 defeat against Empoli last weekend and will need to bounce back in this fixture.
Lazio, on the other hand, have improved in recent weeks and are in sixth place in the league table at the moment. The Biancocelesti stunned AS Roma with a 3-2 victory in their previous game and will be confident ahead of this match.
Bologna vs Lazio Head-to-Head
Lazio have an impressive record against Bologna and have won 19 out of 36 matches played between the two teams. Bologna have managed only seven victories against Lazio and will need to be at their best on Sunday.
The previous meeting between the two Italian outfits took place in February this year and ended in a 2-0 victory for Bologna. Lazio were shockingly poor on the day and have a point to prove this weekend.
