Luzhny set to start against Arsenal

Oleg Luzhny is set for his second Premiership start for Wolves against his former club.

The ex-Arsenal defender will replace hamstring injury victim Denis Irwin in the starting line-up for the daunting St Stephen's Day visit to the Gunners.

Nathan Blake has failed to shake off a calf injury he sustained 18 days ago during his side’s defeat at Tottenham.

Provisional squad: Oakes, Luzhny, Butler, Craddock, Naylor, Rae, Newton, Andrews, Gudjonsson, Ince, Iversen, Camara, Kachloul, Kennedy, Miller, Cameron, Sturridge, Silas, Okoronkwo, Marshall
