CBF Extends Exclusive Integrity Partnership with Sportradar

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and Sportradar Integrity & Regulatory Services, a unit of Sportradar AG announced the extension of their long-standing partnership, set to begin with the 2025 season. The new agreement aims to enhance efforts to combat match-fixing in Brazilian football and safeguard the integrity of the sport.
Sportradar, through its industry-leading Universal Fraud Detection System (UFDS), will deliver integrity monitoring for more than 8200 men’s and women’s matches organized annually by the CBF. Through this renewed partnership, the UFDS will now cover all Brazilian national championships.
The renewal of the partnership comes at an important time in the fight against match-fixing. According to the Integrity in Action 2024 Global Analysis & Trends published by Sportradar in early 2025, the number of matches suspected of being manipulated worldwide fell by 17% in 2024. Notably, in 2024, Brazil experienced a significant decline in the number of suspicious soccer matches, with 53 fewer cases detected – a decrease of 48% – compared to the previous year.
Ednaldo Rodrigues, President of the CBF, said: “Strengthening the integrity of Brazilian football is a priority for this administration, and the renewal of this partnership further reinforces our commitment to this mission. The work of the CBF’s Integrity Unit, in collaboration with Sportradar, will complement monitoring by FIFA and result in more than 10,000 Brazilian football matches being covered this season. It’s an impressive and symbolic milestone that makes us very proud. This is a partnership that has been bearing fruit and has been crucial in the fight against match-fixing, ensuring a fairer and safer environment for the sport.”
Andreas Krannich, Executive Vice President of Integrity & Regulatory Services at Sportradar, said: “We have built a strong collaboration with CBF to reinforce the integrity of Brazilian football. With this new agreement, Sportradar is providing the most comprehensive coverage Brazilian football has ever had. We are very pleased to continue this partnership with one of the world’s most-renowned football organizations.”
The continuing partnership with CBF, which began in 2018, underscores Sportradar’s commitment to protecting global football from potential integrity threats. This effort joins existing agreements established with leading football organizations including CONMEBOL, FIFA, UEFA, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), and the Colombian Football Federation (FCF), as well as more than 270 other sports organizations and government authorities.
