The Coppa Italia is back in action with another round of matches this week as Bologna lock horns with Maurizio Sarri's Lazio outfit in an important clash at the Stadio Olimpico on Thursday.

Lazio vs Bologna Preview

Bologna are currently in 11th place in the Serie A standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The away side edged Udinese to a 2-1 victory over the weekend and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Lazio, on the other hand, are in fifth place in the league table at the moment and have been fairly impressive over the past year. The Biancocelesti eased past Sassuolo by a 2-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.

Lazio have stepped up under Maurizio Sarri this season but have a few issues to address at the moment. The likes of Felipe Anderson and Mattia Zaccagni have been impressive this season and will look to make their mark in this fixture.
