With both Andrea Cambiaso (at Juventus) and Georgios Kyriakopoulos (at AC Monza) now on different teams, Lykogiannis is expected to regain the starting role he did not receive across the 2022-23 Bologna team's last three games. By getting consistent starts at left-back, he can attempt many crosses and be an overall valuable threat from the flank.

Impact Lykogiannis made his first start in a month and struggled defensively as all his teammates against a vastly superior opposition. On the other hand, the left-back could at least provide support on the attacking end and that included a very lucky goal to open the scoring in the 22nd minute as he was hit by a teammate's shot and the deflection completely fooled the goalkeeper. This was the first goal of the season for Lykogiannis, who will hope to keep getting playing time during upcoming matches.
