Most football experts probably did not anticipate such a breakthrough from Lazio following their departures from Ciro Immobile and Luis Alberto. As they approach the next round, the Romans are just one point behind leaders Napoli, while Bologna are seven points adrift, although they have finally started to impress offensively.
In 12 Serie A matches, Lazio have scored 25 goals—only Inter Milan (26) and Atalanta (31) have been more productive in attack. Their 1:0 win over Monza marked their fourth consecutive victory in Serie A, and if you include Europa League matches, they have won six in a row. Against a defensive Monza, Lazio made the most of their 1.17 xG, and a more open opponent will likely allow them to create even more chances.
Despite their failure in the Champions League, Bologna have improved their standing in the domestic league. A well-deserved win over AS Roma (3:2 with 1.75 xG) marked their third consecutive victory in Serie A—the European competition spots are now within reach. Notably, on the road, Bologna have seen over 2.5 goals in five out of six matches.
Alongside impressive results, Lazio have been one of Serie A's most entertaining teams, alongside Hellas Verona, with 10 instances of over 2.5 goals out of 12 rounds. It's highly likely Bologna will complement the attacking flair of the Romans—expect a total of 3 to 4 goals.
