Doomed, unlucky (3-5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ill-fated

I believe this is a double definition.

'doomed' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'unlucky' is the second definition.
(I know that unlucky can be written as ill-fated)

(Other definitions for ill-fated that I've seen before include "Destined to fail" , "Unlucky, bad times ahead" , "Destined for bad luck" , "Doomed(3.5)" , "'Doomed, unlucky (3-5)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and The Mirror.
