Lazio vs Bologna Preview

Lazio vs Bologna

Competition – Serie A

Stadium – Stadio Olimpico

Date: 20th May 2019

Kick-off time – 19:30 GMT

Lazio will be looking to continue their push for a European place when they take on Bologna in this game.

Lazio have been inconsistent for much of this season and their fans can only hope that they end the season on a high.

Their only chance of qualifying for the Champions League through the league standings is for them to win their remaining two games while the teams above them struggle.

While that seems impossible and perhaps unimportant, their recent form seems to suggest that they can at least play their part and hope for the best.

They come here having won 4 of their last 5 games in all competitions including winning the Italian Cup which guarantees them a spot in the Europa League next season.

Bologna will be looking to build on their recently accumulated 40 points that has helped them avoid relegation for yet another season.

They come here in a fine run of form that has seen them win 4 of their last 6 games, so the should be pretty confident that they can get something from their host here.

The last time Bologna played away was against Milan where they took the lead before settling for a 2-1 loss having had a man sent off.

Bookmakers have priced Lazio up as steady favourites to come out on top in this game while goal markets expect a lively game as over 2.5 goals is currently trading odds-on.

Ciro Immobile is clear favourite to score the opening goal of the game.
