Police allows Lazio supporters to travel for match against Bologna
Summary

Lazio fans will be allowed to travel to Bologna for the Serie A opener at Stadio Renato Dall’Ara on August 24. Bologna's local police refuted claims of a travel ban, emphasizing that Lazio supporters could attend despite rumors stemming from the club’s earlier statements. This season, organized Lazio supporters are boycotting home fixtures due to dissatisfaction with president Claudio Lotito but plan to support their team on the road, evident in their attendance at recent friendly matches. The controversy surrounding the travel ban is seen as Bologna's unsuccessful attempt to block Lazio supporters from attending. Lazio will also host Mantova in the Coppa Italia on August 13, likely with limited fan support at home.
