Python beautifulSoup: create and combine lists and remove redundancies like \n

How can I combine the full lists into a dataframe. When I print it seems to only print the first record and it also includes \n and other redundancies like ' etc.

    import requests
    from requests_html import HTML, HTMLSession
    from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
    import pandas as pd
    import csv
    import json
    
    url = 'https://lehighsports.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule/2018'
    lehigh = requests.get(url).text
    soup = BeautifulSoup(lehigh,'lxml')
    
    for opp in soup.find_all('div',class_="sidearm-schedule-game-opponent-text"):
        opp_list = []
        opp_list.append(opp.text)
     #   print(opp_list)
    
    for conf in soup.find_all('div',class_="sidearm-schedule-game-conference-conference"):
        conf_list = []
        conf_list.append(conf.text)
    #    print(conf_list)
    
    dict = {'opponent':[opp_list],'conference':[conf_list]}
    df = pd.DataFrame(dict)
    print(df)

You are setting opp_list and conf_list in every iteration to [] - initialize them only once. Alson, you don't have to put brackets in dictionary creation {'opponent':opp_list,'conference':conf_list}

To remove whitespace, you can use .get_text() method with strip=True and separator= parameters.

For example:

import requests
import pandas as pd
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = 'https://lehighsports.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule/2018'
lehigh = requests.get(url).text
soup = BeautifulSoup(lehigh,'lxml')

opp_list = []
for opp in soup.find_all('div',class_="sidearm-schedule-game-opponent-text"):
    opp_list.append(opp.get_text(strip=True, separator=' '))

conf_list = []
for conf in soup.find_all('div',class_="sidearm-schedule-game-conference-conference"):
    conf_list.append(conf.get_text(strip=True))

dict = {'opponent':opp_list,'conference':conf_list}
df = pd.DataFrame(dict)
print(df)

Prints:
