Auxerre vs Le Mans

Auxerre host Le Mans in Ligue 1. This preview compares historical records dated before the prediction was locked with the model's pre-match probabilities. Probabilities describe estimated outcomes, not guaranteed results.

Across their last 5 recorded league matches, Auxerre collected 9 points (3 wins, 0 draws and 2 losses). Le Mans earned 6 points from 5 matches (1 wins, 3 draws and 1 losses). These are separate recent-form samples, not a forecast of the final score.

At home, Auxerre have 4 wins, 0 draws and 1 losses in their last 5 recorded home matches. On the road, Le Mans have 0 wins, 1 draws and 2 losses across 3 away matches.

Where full-quality xG is available, Auxerre average 1.53 xG and 1.42 xGA over 4 recent matches; Le Mans average 1.43 xG and 1.95 xGA over 5 matches. xG coverage can be smaller than the recent-results sample.

At the prediction timestamp, the reconstructed league table places Auxerre in position 12 and Le Mans in position 14. The table uses matches dated before the prediction timestamp; later backfills cannot be independently excluded.

This analysis is based on available league records and the pre-match snapshot. Missing samples are not estimated; player availability, injuries and tactical claims are not inferred.

Auxerre and Le Mans drew 1–1. The following review separates the final score from the locked pre-match model forecast.

Expected goals were 0.87 for Auxerre and 1.41 for Le Mans. Le Mans generated the higher xG total. Auxerre scored +0.13 goals relative to xG and Le Mans scored -0.41 relative to xG. Goals minus xG is a descriptive difference, not proof of finishing skill or luck in one match.

Auxerre registered 13 shots, with 5 on target (shot accuracy: 38.5%); Le Mans recorded 11 shots, with 2 on target (shot accuracy: 18.2%). Shot accuracy is shots on target divided by total shots, not a measure of chance quality.

The model's highest-probability 1X2 outcome was Home (52.4%); the actual outcome was Draw, so the leading selection did not match the result. The pre-match probabilities were not recalculated after the fixture.
