Passing & Build-Up

Squad Depth
Iran's starters average 5 league appearances each, versus 9 for Oman. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
