Preview: Hidden danger in Cincy's low goal output

Maybe you've heard (...from our writing, no less) that FC Cincinnati has had trouble scoring goals recently. In fact, they haven't scored from open play since prior to facing the Union at the end of March.

However, the Expected Goals tells a different story. Cincy is 11th in the league in xG over the past four games, and they have hit the woodwork six times in their past three matches. They are 10th in the league in Big Chances Created with 2.5 chances per game.

They generate good chances each match that they don't finish.
