Lazio Preview – Can Lazio improve on 5th?
A 5th place finish at the end of last season’s Serie A campaign saw Lazio end their season six points behind 4th placed Juventus despite ending last term being unbeaten in their final four games and losing just once in their final eight games overall.
That loss was a 2-1 defeat at home to Scudetto winners, AC Milan, while Lazio also picked up wins against Sassuolo, Genoa, Spezia and Sampdoria to secure their place in the Europa League and having lost just two of their last 12 home games as well as winning the previous three meetings on the trot against Bologna, the hosts look in good shape here.
Bologna Preview – Can Bologna build on last term’s finish?
Despite finishing last season sitting in the bottom half of Serie A in 13th place, Bologna produced an encouraging finish to their season which saw the visitors lose just two of their final nine matches in Serie A overall.
However, Bologna only picked up three wins during that sequence of results, two of which were gained on home soil at their Stadio Renato Dall’Ara, while wins on the road were hard to come by as Bologna registered just one win from their final 10 outings on their travels which included five defeats.
