如何过滤从 HTML 表中提取的值

Question

I want to scrape stats and odds from betexplorer, in particular this site https://www.betexplorer.com/soccer/russia/premier-league-2019-2020/cska-moscow-fc-tambov/8Ya3mpOC/

homeodd = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[contains(@id,'aodds')]").text

I have this return

CLOSING ODDS
22.07. 17:48 1.28 +0.01
OPENING ODDS
17.07. 00:07 1.27

How could I scrape only the opening odds?

Answer 1

Try more specific XPath to get Opening Odds only:

xpath = '//table[starts-with(@id,"aodds")]//tr[th="Opening odds"]/following-sibling::tr'
homeodd = driver.find_element_by_xpath(xpath).text

If you want to ignore date and change values:

xpath = '//table[starts-with(@id,"aodds")]//tr[th="Opening odds"]/following-sibling::tr/td[@class="bold"]'

Answer 2

An xpath such as:

//tbody[contains(@id,'aodds')]/tr[4]

Seems to highlight the relevant row in the DOM:

From that, you can look to find_elements and print out each child td . (shout if you need support with this)

As an alternative, if you already have the whole text you can just manipulate your string. Assuming homeodd contains the text you post:

print (homeodd.split('OPENING ODDS')[-1])

That will split around your required text and the [-1] takes the last item in the array - ie everything after opening odds.
