Football Data Scraper to CSV Converter

Interested in Football Analytics?

I've started my journey diving into football analytics and have created a sample python program that references https://understat.com/ to scrape single game shot data

How To

• Import all necssary packages/modules requests, pandas, BeautifulSoup
• Go to https://understat.com/ and go to any match that you want specific shot data for. Match URL should look like the following https://understat.com/match/{match-id}
• Execute data_scraping.py and input the match-id

Congratulations!

The program then scrapes the shot data from the match and converts each Home and Away's team data into a separate Data Frame. The Data Frame's are then export as separate CSV Files for reference.

Data Frame:
