Why I say it's a lie and it's not about stars is because he's level 39 he could set his win bonus higher than mine since his level is higher than mine I can't not match it and gives his team more advantage than mine. that's why I don't think it's base on stars than it's base on win bonus.

I reckon there should be a limit on the win bonus you can put up to, then it can be base on stars.
116-110 is a very very small difference. Manager's strategies, formations, and the game's random number generator can easily make the 110 a winner.

Before tonight, I had 5 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss in the previous eight games (over three seasons) against a team that is constantly 20% (one star) higher in rating than my team.

Strategies and formations matter. That's for sure.
