Today’s draw with their visit to Bologna (0-0) leaves Lazio at the mercy of Roma and Milan, who could knock them out of the Champions League positions if they win their respective matches on the day it’s in Serie A.
Lazio did not take advantage of the momentum with which they arrived in the match after the previous day’s victory in their visit to Naples (0-1) and, in fact, they spent a large part of the match at the mercy of Bologna by Thiago Motta who had clearer chances and could have taken the three points if he had been more accurate in finishing.
The stick prevented a ‘rossoblú’ goal from Scotsman Lewis Ferguson in the first half and, in the second, Italian goalkeeper Ivan Provedel had to intervene several times to save the team led by his compatriot Maurizio Sarri .
Another defeat without Immobile
It was the second game in a row that Ciro Immobile was unavailable and the second poor result for the Romans, who lost at home on Tuesday against AZ Alkmaar in the round of 16 (first leg) of the Conference League.
Lazio is almost third with 49 points, two more than a Roma measured this Sunday against Sassuolo and a Milan that closes the 26th match against Salernitana on Monday.
For its part, Bologna is sixth to seventh position, which is occupied by Atalanta and gives access to the Conference League, ahead of a Juventus who tomorrow will visit the bottom club Sampdoria.
