Lazio also hold the historical edge with 15 wins to Bologna’s 7. Even with minor squad rotation, the visitors still pack plenty of firepower up front through Mattia Zaccagni and Boulaye Dia. As both clubs usher in new managers, expect a tight, tactical chess match on opening day. Lazio +0.25 on the Asian Handicap offers the sharpest value here, with a draw heavily in play and an outright away win well within reach.
