Genius Sports to Continue Protecting German Soccer from Fraud

The expanded partnership with the DFB will reinforce the association’s protection against betting fraud.

A week after signing a partnership with the VBA, Genius Sports, a company at the heart of the sports data ecosystem, has unveiled an expansion of its integrity cooperation with the German Football Association (DFB). Together, the two parties will protect the integrity of professional soccer and will stand united against the threats of match-fixing and betting-related corruption.

Genius Sports first joined forces with the German Football Association in 2019, when it agreed to provide it with its cutting-edge Bet Monitoring System. The system analyzes global odds movements from more than 7,500 games a year. Thanks to special algorithms, the solution is able to instantly identify potentially suspicious betting activity.
 
What innovation! But am wondering how this bet monitoring system will be able to help to reduce match fixing. But all the same, Genius Sports efforts is quite commendable. Lets see how this wonderful technology will shape football in German league.
