Error in xpath expression when use pd.read_html to read a big html file

I had store a dataframe as a html file(over 200MB) and try to read it in another notebook.

df_mar_html = pd.read_html('tweets_Mar.html')
df_mar = df_mar_html[0]
df_mar 

but the error just occur like this:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

XPathEvalError: Error in xpath expression

Same code works on another smaller dataframe/html file.

How could I solve this error or use other ways to read the dataframe within the html file?
