I would like to scrape the 2nd table in the page seen below from the link - https://fbref.com/en/comps/82/stats/Indian-Super-League-Stats#all_stats_standard on google collab.
but pd.read_html("https://fbref.com/en/comps/82/stats/Indian-Super-League-Stats#all_stats_standard") only gives me the first table.
Please help me understand where I am going wrong.
CodePudding user response：
This is one way to read that data:
import pandas as pd
import requests
url= 'https://fbref.com/en/comps/82/stats/Indian-Super-League-Stats#all_stats_standard'
response = requests.get(url).text.replace('<!--', '').replace('-->', '')
df = pd.read_html(response, header=1)[2]
print(df)
Result in terminal:
