Bologna and Lazio lock horns at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara on March 16, 2025, at 14:00 UTC in what promises to be a tightly contested Serie A clash. With Bologna priced at 2.35 for a home win, Lazio at 3.28 for an away victory, and a draw sitting at 3.10, the odds suggest a slight edge for the hosts. But is that enough to back them? Let’s break it down.

Our AI-generated best tip is 1X (Bologna to win or draw) at 1.35 odds, though the trust level is a modest 2.9/10. The 1X2 market prediction leans towards a Bologna win (2.35 odds, 2.0 trust level), but let’s not ignore the fine margins in this fixture.

Key Stats & Betting Angles

- Possession Battle: Bologna is expected to control 57% of the ball, leaving Lazio with 43%.
- Shots & Accuracy: Bologna is predicted to take 13 shots, with 3 on target, while Lazio is expected to manage 12 shots, but with a sharper 5 on target.
- Corners & Discipline: Expect around 9 corners in total (4 for Bologna, 5 for Lazio) and a mild disciplinary affair with 1 yellow card for Bologna and 2 for Lazio.

Recent Form & Head-to-Head

Bologna won the last head-to-head meeting 1-0 on November 3, 2023, and they’ll look to repeat that success. Interestingly, both teams have shown they can grind out tough results – Bologna recently held Sporting CP to a 1-1 draw away, while Lazio stunned Inter with the same scoreline.

Goal Market & Scoreline Prediction

Our AI predicts Under 2.5 goals (1.67 odds, 1.2 trust level), with a projected final score of 1-0 to Bologna. Given that only 51.2% of Serie A games exceed 2.5 goals, this aligns well with the trend. The anticipated 0-0 half-time score suggests a slow start, making a HT Draw bet an interesting option.

Final Verdict

With Bologna’s slight edge in possession and their solid home form, backing 1X (Bologna to win or draw) at 1.35 seems like a safe bet. If you’re feeling adventurous, a Bologna win at 2.35 could be worth the risk. Given the expected low-scoring nature, Under 2.5 goals at 1.67 is another solid pick.

Lazio has the firepower to cause problems, but Bologna’s home advantage and recent success in this fixture make them the smarter choice. Buckle up for a tactical battle – and maybe don’t expect fireworks!
