Something is wrong with matchmaking

Since the release of FC26 I've noticed that matchmaking doesn't feel right. I'm in division 4 and average around 8 wins in WL. Matches in those two modes seem fine. I get a few very tough opponents but when I lose, I get matched against similar level opponents. So the difficulty is more or less around what is expected in my division and in WL. 

However in live events and tournaments it's a whole other story. First of all many opponents are absolute demons. They are by far way more tougher that those in DR and WL. Secondly I come up way more often against that level of opponents even though I go on a 6, 7, ... 10 game losing streak. No matter how many times I lose I still come up against absolute game mechanic abusing monsters. 

I thought live events were supposed to be for casual non-sweaty gameplay. Turns out it's the sweatiest game mode of all. Thanks to the broken or nonexistent matchmaking system.

I kindly request an explanation on how matchmaking works, if it even exists at all. And if there are issues with it that is causing constant matching against elite level opponents instead of people around a similar skill level, please inform us because the way it's working now is obviously broken and unfair. You guys always lecture your customers about how you make games fun and fair for everyone, well right now that's not the case regarding live events.
