Iterate and Parse Json with similar values in python-CodePudding

I have this code which iterates and parses data from a json API feed. I am trying to filter out just the Premier League games but some competitions have similar names like 'Premier League 2 (Division 2)' and 'Premier League Cup'

    for event_data in data['events']:
        if event_data['path'][1]['name'] == 'England' and 'Premier League' in event_data['path'][2]['name'] and 'MATCH' in event_data['tags']:
            competition = event_data['group']
            competition_id = event_data['groupId']
            event_id = event_data['id']
            event_name = event_data['name']
            home_team = event_data['homeName']
            away_team = event_data['awayName']
            event_start = event_data['start']
            event_status = event_data['state']

            print(f'{competition} {competition_id} {event_id} {event_name} {event_start} {event_status} {home_team} {away_team}')

the output for this code is below. As you can see the first 2 lines are similar competition names to 'Premier League'. I tried to filter by the competition ID (second column) but integers seem to cause an issue using this method.

what would be the best way to filter these two competitions out of the output?

Premier League 2 (Division 2) 2000096352 1019103797 Nottingham Forest U21 - Stoke City Reserves 2022-10-17T18:00:00Z NOT_STARTED Nottingham Forest U21 Stoke City Reserves

This is what the json looks like for the Premier League games:

CodePudding user response：

Looks like you can update the conditional to filter on the groupId or group name

if event_data['path'][1]['name'] == 'England' and event_data['groupId'] == 1000094985 and 'MATCH' in event_data['tags']:

if event_data['path'][1]['name'] == 'England' and event_data['group'] == 'Premier League' and 'MATCH' in event_data['tags']:
