Sportradar, a global provider of sports integrity solutions and data products, has signed a long-term extension of its partnership with the Indian Super League (ISL), India’s professional football championship.
The deal, signed with Football Sports Development Limited (FSDL), current organizer of the Indian Super League, will allow Sportradar’s sports integrity service to monitor all matches using its Fraud Detection System (FDS).
The company will also provide the Indian entity with access to its specialized Intelligence and Investigation (I&I) services to help protect competition from betting-related manipulation.
“The renewal of ISL’s partnership with us only shows how committed they are to maintaining integrity in the game and focused on the growth of football in the country,” said Sportradar Integrity Service director Andreas Krannich.
Krannich added: “As a global leader in sports integrity, we want to continue to provide our experience and help protect the country’s football tournament against all issues related to irregularities.”
