The statistical population of the study consisted of all managers and experts, coaches, referees and athletes of the Premier League, who were selected through purposive sampling (172 persons). The validity of the researcher-made questionnaire was confirmed by experts (n = 11). Its reliability was calculated using Cronbach's alpha test (0.938) and combined reliability. Structural equation modeling with PLS3 and SPSS24 software was used for data analysis and model fit.Results: The results of the path analysis showed that the causes and drivers of collusion have a significant effect on the behavior of actors and agents of collusion, methods and tools of collusion and the consequences and consequences of collusion. Factors of collusion methods and tools also had a significant effect on the behavior of actors and agents of collusion and the consequences and consequences of collusion. Also the behavior of actors and actors of collusion had a significant effect on the results and consequences of collusion.

Finally, the 407 fans, both male and female, were selected randomly as the sample. The structured questionnaire was used to collect data which its content and face validity was checked and verified by a group of experts. Cronbach's Alpha coefficient was used to test the reliability of the questionnaire (α=0.92). Factor analysis with varimax rotation was used to analyze the data. Results:According to exploratory factor analysis, the 38 variables were classified into six categories of environmental, cultural, psychological, security, protective and managerial. The results showed that the most important item was "the experienced professional players, coaches, and referees" (M=4.42, SD=0.81). The least important component was "the intangible controls of officers" (M=3.26, SD=1.37). The factors affecting fan behavior improvement were ranked managerial, environmental, psychological, protective, cultural, and security factors respectively. Conclusion: According to research findings, considering the managerial factors and training the efficient human resources can be as an effective step in the improvement of fan behavior.
