Lemonis was doing better on his second spell with Olympiacos, leading the way to a second away victory in Champions League away game against SS Lazio, a home win of 3–0 against Bremen (6–1 tally in favor of Olympiakos between the two teams), and a dominant 4–0 win against Panathinaikos in the Greek Cup eighth-finals.
