Luck Index Score

Auxerre are the definition of "we deserved more." With 22 points from 32.81 expected, they've been robbed of 10.81 points this season. 7 draws tell the story - they're dominating matches and walking away with crumbs. The worst part? They've scored 7 fewer goals than their xG suggests. The finishing is cursed. Genuinely, cosmically cursed.

Why?

Auxerre are deeply cursed at -59. This level of underperformance almost never persists. The data they're generating - the chances created, the shots taken, the defensive work - all point to a team better than their record. Regression to the mean is one of the most reliable forces in sports.
