bs4 find table by id, returning 'None'

Question

Not sure why this isn't working :( I'm able to pull other tables from this page, just not this one.

import requests

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup

url = requests.get("https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/BOS/2018.html",

                   headers={'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0'})

page = soup(url.content, 'html')

table = page.find('table', id='team_and_opponent')

print(table)

Answer 1

There is no table with id team_and_opponent in that page. Rather there is a span tag with this id. You can get results by changing id.
