Unfair Matchmaking in Ultimate Team Division Rivals

Hey everyone! I’ve been playing EA FC25 for about a year and a half now, so I'm still fairly new to the game. Recently, I’ve encountered a frustrating problem. I reached Division 5 in Ultimate Team Division Rivals, but now I keep getting matched with opponents who are way above my skill level. Over the last 50 games, most of my opponents have been playing as if they're in much higher divisions, and the games feel nearly impossible to win.

Out of curiosity, I started asking my opponents after matches what division they're in, and, to my surprise, nearly all of them were from higher divisions! It’s incredibly frustrating to feel like all my hard work and time spent building my team and skills are going to waste, like I’m just fighting an uphill battle.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is there anything we can do to make EA aware or get some kind of fix? I’d love to hear from others who might be going through the same thing or have some advice.

Thanks, and hopefully, I’m not the only one facing this unfair matchmaking!

    Sometimes it’s based on actual player skill in game and not the players someone has on there UT. 
    also make sure you utilize players to there best performance for position in editing team tactics player role(R1) menu.
    ex. Playmaker++ two pluses is how well the player knows particular role and these can be increased through evos as well as well as adding play styles and or positions it all depends on EVO and players eligible for that EVO some EVOs are free and some cost coins or points.EVOs help boost your players even low level players some EVOs boost a low 80 player all the way up to 90 .Use SBC’s to get packs or players from duplicate players in club. Always use untradeable first, Use transfer market and our quick sell to build up coins for future players investments and last but not least utilize 3rd party web pages for tips and pointers on using evos and marketplace values as well. I’ve been on UT since well just say I believe console was still ps3 LOL ….ps and if you are struggling in rivals stay away from online tournaments that is where all the really good players go and it is for certain a L unless you are super good player and have a squad u know how to use
