Sports betting and data provider Stats Perform has entered into an integrity partnership with Football Association of Moldova (FMF).
Under the two year-agreement, Stats Perform will work with FMF to monitor activity in Moldova’s Națională top-tier club football competition.
Stats Perform will utilise its Performance Integrity Analysis (PIA) solution to detect and identify potential cases of match-fixing and other match manipulation.
“Football is the most loved and practiced game in the world and our mission is to protect this sport from any threat,” FMF integrity department head Eugen Zubic said.
“That is why it is crucial for FMF to use the services of Stats Perform, one the biggest international and expert companies in betting and performance analysis, in the form of reports that are extremely necessary in the match-fixing disciplinary investigation phase.”
Stats Perform’s global head of integrity Jake Marsh added: “We are delighted FMF have chosen Stats Perform’s unique integration of betting markets monitoring, intelligence and Opta-powered performance analysis to support their integrity programme.
“This agreement shows the importance FMF place in ensuring the integrity of their competitions, and we look forward to working with them in a successful partnership.”
Stats Perform has similar partnerships in place with a host of other sports organisations and properties, including the Women’s Tennis Association and the European Handball Federation.
