I think match fixing is very much a reality. Especially in low tier competition and poor countries where there is not strict regulatory control.
Also if you are not talking only about football in some sports athletes barely making a living so this might also influence.

There's a news going round this days that the reason why gamblers are no longer winning games when it comes to sport betting is because sport bet companies and other influential people in the world always buy matches and tell them what they should play, for example two football clubs are playing a match tomorrow and a lot of people have predicted on that particular match and if majority of gambler's have predicted on it that sport bet companies will decide to buy the match in other for those clubs to play the unexpected.
This is not true because such act is highly prohibited by nations they have a very strict laws against match fixing and any Player, coache, or official caught engaging in this practice risk being ban from the sport there by tarnishing their careers and reputations.
One of the reasons why match fixing is not supported is because it kills the passion for that particular sport and Match-fixing involves manipulation and deception, betraying the trust of fans, players, and stakeholders who expect the sport to be genuine, that news flying around about match fixing is false, if your prediction didn't go as predicted those not mean the match was fixed.
The same way gamblers lose money sometimes that's same way sport betting companies lose money sometimes, and same way gamblers win sometimes that's same way sport betting companies win sometimes.

in the top leagues where top clubs play, the probability of a fixed match is very low, but in leagues of the second tier, this can happen without problems and not only in football, but hockey, volleyball, and so on, often, ironically, the sponsors of these clubs are bookmakers (is that a coincidence?) in addition to the teams that have agreed among themselves, there are also judges who adjust the result in their favor, so in this aspect there are two negative components.
Gamblers are always going up with different stories about why they are not winning. If you enter a physical betting shop you will hear all kinds of stories that are nothing but fiction of someone's imagination. I wonder how a wealthy individual will buy a match and manipulate both teams to play as he wishes. I have never read about that anyway, maybe the OP can give us a link to a published story.
Match fixing happens in both major and lowly rated Leagues. But it is mainly done by players or match officials. It will be easy to manipulate games in the lower league where player's pay is very low. That's why I prefer to place bets on major leagues alone to avoid being caught up in this fraud.

players make up stories because they want to hide, the reality is this and nothing can change what they say, the fact that they always have an excuse says a lot about how much bullshit they tell, in truth the biggest lie they tell to themselves.
Regarding match fixing, they caught some in Italy recently and it breaks down what they were doing in minor leagues or sports, match fixing and manipulating the matches

No, what happens in this case is that the fixed matches came to highily reduce the rate of winning gamblers in that after those big shoes has hijacked the the reality outcome of the games with their influence, they tends to bridge winning of those good gamblers with analytical mindsets on their prediction.So those obvious matches they can easily be predictable are the most interested of those whales to be hijacked so the can savage most bettors predictions to fail.

Match fixing happens in some cases but it was easier before when it was handled more effectively. In big leagues and important matches, although they would be the most interesting ones, it is just more difficult because they are the ones that attract the most attention and at the minimum the involved parties can find themselves in court. Bernard Tapie went to jail for such a case, for example.
In any case, the hypothesis raised by the OP is bullshit, what happens with the bookies is that they adjust the odds better and better, it is something that if you watch interviews with professional sports bettors who have been doing this for years you will see that they comment (if they comment the opposite, think if they have a school or a supposedly winning system that they want to sell you).

This isn't something new and we have seen such news earlier as well.
Many players have been caught in such cases and have been banned from playing the sport.
Rich people often end up buying the players or the teams and bet against them to win a huge load of money.
It's hard to tell if a player or a team has fixed a match but the probability of such things happening in huge games are low.
So we can say that the bigger leagues have lesser fixed matches and are generally safer to bet on.
if it's in a big league maybe it won't be a problem, but when you gamble on a smaller and less popular league, your view on this might change, because in a smaller league there is a greater possibility that the game could be fixed because usually the players who play in this league do not have good professionalism and they tend to work in other fields outside their sport. so it's no wonder that there are many cases of game fixing in smaller leagues because people who play in this league don't really think about 'fair play' and they only play based on what benefits them, even when it risks their pride.
Just go to the big league.
If you play on low league or small league, match and other. The match fixing was high, there also have some discussion the person who created the league or provider a match can see a pools money in the match.
They, can choose which one are gonna to be win according to the pools money. Best advice, never bet on small league or unknown match/player just go to the big leagues.

Match-fixing exists; you may not see it often in big leagues because there is an organization or commission that carefully watches for signs of anomalies, but in small leagues where the games and betting are not sanctioned by big organizations, it happens. I have seen it happen many times before.
As a bettor, you must have a keen observation; don't just accept the results; its part of your analysis to check for errors, whether its intentional or not.
In every rumour there is a truth in it. just so you know people don't just talk or spread news without a real fact actually pushing this talks it only happens to be that some might be over exaggerated. match/game fixing is very real. A lot of small leagues partake in this act and because it's prohibited it's been covered with the fact that football games are very much unpredictable.
If you want to see what it's really about you should try small leagues and see for yourself that it's really manipulated, 20 odds could win 1.10 odds with match fixings but in popular leagues it's really almost impossible to see such outcome. Just don't think because it hasn't happened to you that it can not or it's not true people do a lot of weird things to get this bag and this match fixing is one of those things.

It is true bro in low league i believe because here in my country indonesia there are rumors about match fixing before
The news is in indonesia language but here i translate for you
"The Indonesian National Police (Polri) and PSSI Anti-Mafia Football Task Force revealed a series of the latest facts from the match fixing case in the Indonesian football league. Starting from the involvement of Vigit Waluyo to the SBOTOP gambling house with a turnover of billions of rupiah." https://www.tempo.co/sepakbola/3-fakta-terbaru-kasus-match-fixing-liga-indonesia-libatkan-vigit-waluyo-hingga-beromzet-miliaran-rupiah-108744
It is crazy right match fixings can earn the casino hundred of dollar more and 100K here in indonesia is a lot
Actually I feel match fixing is a reality but not in the well known league as those big leagues are so much of a big business that I doubt the possibilities of just buying these teams over to perform according to their bid as there's usually so much at stake on almost every match for them to allow some gamblers pay disrupt their actual performance and getting their deserving pay assupposed
Then for other sports that aren't popular and are less known to people out there are the ones that can be fixed and then pay the players to do according to their bid.

Match fixing can be real but not to a noticeable rate, a lot of things happened behind the seen even with sanctions in place for this kind of act, people can still find their way to manoeuvre and would not get caught in the action.
I doubt sometimes it happens to some noticeable rate, i watched a game were this team played to a smaller club and it was unlike how they played knowing they have easy points before them, all attacking chance were dissolved back to their goal keeper claiming to take possession of the ball, this went on and the players were slow, nothing seems right from the game and my instinct kicked that the game was sold. I don't think any gambling company will pay directly for a fixed game, it's hard to believe but this trade is mostly an agreement between both teams playing against each other.
An aggrieved gambler may say anything to make themselves feel good including choosing to accuse a sports betting company of match fixing. Every new gambler should understand that the odds to win in gambling is not always in their favor and will always be in the favor of the company so the chances of them losing is always higher than the chances of them winning. Most sports betting companies do not also have the ability to fix matches, so the accusation that some sports betting companies are involved in match fixing to me is false.
Some people will not know this until they gamble and losing even if the matches are not manipulated. They do not know that the betting sites will calculate the probability of their customers winning and it would be small in a way that they will make money from the customers while most of the customers will be losing. I have calculated the probability before and I noticed nobody should take betting as a way of making money just like we should not take gambling as a way of making money. One thing that I have also researched about before are the people that got addicted in betting. I mean betting and not gambling because this thread is about betting. All of the addicts are good in making findings about teams or people that are playing or competing against each other but they will only noticed that they are losing after better. What makes them lose is that they think they have deployed another strategy that can help them but instead it is making them lose.

match fixing I believe can happen in sports. but I believe it is for the benefit of personal teams and some other people. not related to certain bookmakers to get bigger wins or avoid losses.in betting, we have to be more realistic. it will not be easy for sportsbooks to fix live matches. there are many who will be involved and I am sure they will not bother to do it.
we may see more match fixing in less popular leagues. so just avoid betting there.
There have been many talks bout match-fixing some are proven but not really entirely. However, there are ways entirely that you can see how they are doing it in public especially when the fight in boxing is a mismatch which means you know exactly who will win because of the advantage of the other.
Some people claim that whenever they fix a match it only needs one player in the team to be compromised for the team to lose deliberately.

What do you want to say with this post? That fixed matches don't exist? And even funnier is the statement that there are no fixed matches, just because it is prohibited. This statement is equivalent to saying that there is no theft in the world, just because it is prohibited by law.This is not true because such act is highly prohibited by nations they have a very strict laws against match fixing and any Player, coache, or official caught engaging in this practice risk being ban from the sport there by tarnishing their careers and reputations.

Officially, there was no scandal related to fixed matches. That is, formally, it is impossible to prove. Which is not surprising, if rich people were able to agree and influence the outcome of the match in their favor, then it will not be difficult to hush up this matter. But sometimes there are such matches that you watch and are surprised that the team behaves completely differently than usual, roughly speaking, a radically changed "handwriting". This is precisely what raises doubts and suspicions about the existence of fixed matches.
At the moment, fixed matches are like UFOs: no one has seen them, but everyone says that they exist.
Or is this still an established urban legend?
Even though cases of fraud are constantly reported, this does not imply that players lose because of it. Many bet out of fanaticism or under biases. While it is possible for matches to be rigged, it certainly doesn't happen with all matches. My advice is that in competitions where one team seems far superior to another, not to bet on that match and choose another or do it without risking a lot of money.

Match fixing will high unlikely happen in important match.
I still believe there's a chance match fixing happen in Premier League, La Liga, Serie A etc because the league is long, 38 weeks, cheating in few match would be fine.
But, if it's an Europa League and Champions League during elimination round, there's no team will joking, if they lose, they lose. They will try their best to win the match, hence we always see a fierce match during elimination round.
