Lazio secured a decisive victory in Serie A Week 13, overpowering Bologna on Sunday, November 24, 2024, at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy. This win marked their seventh consecutive triumph in both the league and the Europa League. Moreover, and for the second time in a row without conceding a goal.
Lazio has now caught up with Inter, Atalanta, and Fiorentina, all tied at 28 points, just one point shy of Napoli with 29 points, the league leaders. On the flip side, Bologna’s nine-match unbeaten run in Serie A came to an end, preventing them from moving ahead of Milan and keeping them in eighth place. They now face the risk of being overtaken by Udinese, who are playing away against Empoli.
Simply put, Bologna is feeling the heat and needs a win to start their climb toward the European spots.
Lazio has been strong at home, remaining unbeaten in 10 of their last 11 Serie A matches against Bologna (with 7 wins and 3 draws). Although they did lose the most recent encounter 1-2 on February 18. Historically, Bologna has only managed to achieve two consecutive away wins against Lazio once, during the period from 1960 to 1964.
Bologna has claimed victory in 48 of their 140 Serie A clashes with Lazio (with 38 draws and 54 losses), only trailing their record against Roma (54 wins). Last season, Bologna triumphed in both matches against Lazio and could potentially secure three consecutive wins against the Biancocelesti in Serie A for the first time since 1979 and 1980.
The action starts…
Lazio gained the upper hand in the 68th minute when Samuel Gigot found the back of the net with a close-range header aimed at the bottom right corner. This opportunity arose after a corner kick given away by Sam Beukema. Zaccagni’s corner was slightly redirected by Moro, inadvertently setting up the ball perfectly for Gigot at the far post, where he had plenty of time to score.

Bologna is in complete disarray. In the 73rd minute, Lazio Captain Mattia Zaccagni found the back of the net with a precise right-footed shot into the bottom right corner. Pellegrini set up De Silvestri on the left, who then assisted his captain. Zaccagni made a clever move back to the right, curling a beautiful shot past Ravaglia into the far post.

And that’s a wrap! Lazio secured their victory in the dying moments of the game. Fisayo Dele-Bashiru scoring in the 92nd minute with a precise right-footed shot into the bottom right corner. The assist was by Gustav Isaksen. The final score stands at Lazio 3 – 0 Bologna.

Stats before the game
Lazio have won 10 of their last 11 matches between Serie A and the Europa League (L1), including all six of the most recent; the Biancocelesti have not achieved at least seven consecutive wins in all competitions since the period between September and November 2017 (nine in that case with Simone Inzaghi as coach).
Bologna are unbeaten in their last nine league matches (4W, 5D), in the last 40 years only once have the Rossoblu recorded a streak of 10 consecutive matches without defeat in Serie A (10 between August and November 2023).
Vincenzo Italiano’s Bologna have collected 18 points in these first 11 league games, the same as accumulated at this point in the tournament in 2023/24 after the first 11 games played. Only twice have the Rossoblu done better after 11 seasonal matches in Serie A in the era of three points for a win: in 2002/03 and 1996/97 (19 in both).
On the one hand, Lazio is the team that has earned the most points in home games in this championship (16 in six matches), on the other hand, no team has obtained more points than Bologna away from home (11 in six matches), on par with Juventus, Inter, Fiorentina and Napoli.
Lazio is the team that has improved the most in this championship in terms of points compared to the first 12 games of last Serie A season: +8 for the Biancocelesti (25 in 2024/25 compared to 17 in 2023/24).
Player Stats
Mattia Zaccagni has scored in the last two championship matches and only once in his career has he found the net in three consecutive appearances in Serie A: in January 2023 (against Empoli, Sassuolo and Milan). The only brace of the 1995-born player with the Lazio shirt in Serie A came against Bologna, on 12 February 2022 at the Olimpico.
Riccardo Orsolini is the player who has scored the first goal of the match the most times in this Serie A season: four of his five goals in this championship have in fact arrived with the score at 0-0. The 1997-born player could become only the fourth Bologna player to score in five consecutive Serie A appearances in the three points for a win era, after Marco Di Vaio (between November and December 2008), Julio Cruz (between March and April 2002) and Roberto Baggio (between April and May 1998).
