4. Close Unnecessary Background Tasks
Another thing you can do is simply close unnecessary background tasks on your PC to ensure there is no additional consumption of system resources happening in the background. Keep FIFA 23, Steam, and other system-related tasks running. To clear out background tasks:

You can also try switching the internet connection from wired (ethernet) to wireless (Wi-Fi) to cross-check the network connectivity problem.
If your IP address has some issues or your DNS address is troubling you, then make sure to use the Google DNS address on the PC to avoid rubberbanding connection or stuttering, or even lagging issues that can happen due to slow internet.
