Andrey Arshavin has been handed a start for Arsenal’s Premier League clash against QPR.<\/p>\n

The Russia international make only his seventh league start of the campaign as Arsene Wenger makes three changes from the side which drew 1-1 against Wolves at the Emirates on December 27.<\/p>\n

For QPR, Neil Warnock makes five changes after his side’s 1-1 draw against Swansea City. Radek Cerny deputises for Paddy Kenny in goal, while Matthew Connolly and Danny Gabbidon deputise for Clint Hill and Fitz Hall at centre-back.<\/p>\n

In midfield, Shaun Derry misses out as Shaun Wright-Phillips comes in and Jay Bothroyd replaces the club’s leading goalscorer this season, Heidar Helguson, in attack.
