Impact Mavropanos appeared to be seeing a slight rise of time after he strung together a couple of starts in a row, but he looks to have returned to his rotation role after only getting the start in their last match after three straight games on the bench. His recent rise in time was most likely due to Nayef Aguerd's service at AFCON, as Mavropanos' five-match starting streak came when his fellow center-back was absent from the team due to his international team duties. The defender will most likely still see some time in the starting XI here and there, as he did previously, but shouldn't be expected to get the nod more than two matches in a row after returning to his rotational role.
