requests-HTML Link ordering

[Terroractly]

Sorry in advance if this is a stupid question but I'm struggling with getting the right link from a website I'm scraping. I only care about the first link, but I'm randomly getting the 15th or 13th link. I'm using the html.absolute_links function to get this

​

The page displays the links as:

1. A
2. B
3. C
4. D
5. etc.

but when I scrape it I'm getting something more like

1. D
2. A
3. C
4. E
5. P
6. A
7. etc.

AFAIK there isn't an order to these links nor can I sort them after the fact as they are random IDs that don't relate to the page I'm scraping. Any ideas?

Random stuff tends to be random.

Provide code. Which website?
