Lazio v Bologna
📅
Kick Off: Sunday 24th November at 19:45
🏆
Competition: Serie A
📺
Watch Live: TNT Sports 1
Both Lazio and Bologna entered the November international break in a rich vein of form, and both teams will look to continue their unbeaten streaks on Sunday. The hosts will look to impact the Serie A title race further, and the visitors will look to bridge the gap between themselves and the European places.
⭐ Lazio v Bologna Best Bets
With Lazio having won each of their last four league outings and Bologna going unbeaten in their last nine, the form of both teams has to be taken into consideration and when the form guide looks good for either side, this is where the draw starts to provide additional value.
Not only have Bologna not lost any of their last nine, but they have also won each of their last three — an uptick in form that comes after drawing each of the three previous league encounters. With Vincenzo Italiano’s men having drawn six of their first 11 league games, another draw is our tip.

👕 Lazio v Bologna Predicted XI
🔍 Lazio v Bologna Player to Watch
🔵 Valentin Castellanos
Lazio forward Valentin Castellanos has collected three yellow cards in this season’s Serie A. The 26-year-old has conceded an average of 1.45 fouls per game since the start of the campaign. His most recent booking was in the 5-1 away over Como at the end of October – a game where he also scored twice.
Castellanos has scored five league goals for Lazio across ten starts in this season’s Serie A. When including his additional substitute appearance, Castellanos has played 900 total league minutes. At a goal every 180 minutes, it means the 26-year-old scores every other game. Since the start of the season, Castellanos has averaged 1.64 shots on target per league appearance.
🔴 Lewis Ferguson
Due to a return from a long-term injury, Lewis Ferguson may have only played eight Serie A minutes this season. However, last season’s numbers are still a strong reason for this tip.
Across the 2023/24 campaign, the Scottish midfielder scored six goals and averaged 1.9 shots per game. In addition to this, the 25-year-old collected eight bookings across the duration of the season.

💻 Lazio v Bologna Form and Tactics
Lazio will look to continue their impressive league form before the international break as the Stadio Olimpico outfit have won each of their last four Serie A outings – a run that sees them fifth in the table at the start of the weekend but only a point behind leaders Napoli.
In their most recent league fixture, manager Marco Baroni oversaw a 1-0 win at Monza and he did so by setting up his team in a 4-3-3 formation. A formation which was a break from the usual 4-2-3-1 that he has usually deployed this season.
Opponents Bologna arrive in the Italian capital having not lost any of their last nine Serie A outings and they have suffered just a single league defeat this season. In addition to that, they went into the international break having won each of their last three outings.
Their most recent victory was at the expense of Roma in what turned out to be Ivan Juric’s last game in charge of the club. In that game, the Bologna boss opted to use a 4-2-3-1 formation but he has also been known to use both 4-3-3 and 4-1-4-1 formations since the start of the campaign.
