Seven expected goals a game. That is the figure attached to Benevento in Club Friendlies right now, and it sits at the top of any list measuring raw chance creation. Whatever shape their attack is taking in these matches, it is generating volume that most sides never approach even in competitive fixtures.
The number that makes it stick is the scoreline, not just the model. Benevento have scored 28 goals in their last four games, which works out to an average of exactly 7.00 goals per match, the same figure as their xG output. When a team's actual production lines up that closely with its underlying numbers over a four game sample, it tends to mean one of two things: either the finishing has been clinical in a way that will regress, or the chances being created are so good that the conversion rate looks almost inevitable.
Context matters here
These numbers come from Club Friendlies, not a league campaign, so the opposition, matchday rhythm and squad rotation all look different from a typical competitive run. Friendly fixtures can produce lopsided scorelines that would be unusual elsewhere, and that context should sit alongside the headline figures rather than be ignored.
Still, 7.00 xG per game is 7.00 xG per game. Whatever is happening in Benevento's attacking buildup in these matches, it is translating into a flood of high value chances, and the finishing has kept pace with it rather than lagging behind. Four matches, 28 goals, and an expected goals tally that matches the final score almost to the decimal. It is a small sample, but it is a loud one.
