Gareth Bale is set to return for title-chasing Real Madrid in their vital La Liga trip to Sevilla this weekend
The Wales forward, 25, has missed their last three matches with a calf injury.
Second-placed Real, who are chasing a first league title since 2012, are two points behind arch-rivals Barcelona with four matches remaining.
"Bale has trained with the team, he's in good shape, and he'll be available for Sevilla," said Los Merengues coach Carlo Ancelotti on Friday.
"Gareth is fresher than some of the others because he has rested and he will help us at an important stage of the season."
As well as chasing the Spanish title, Ancelotti's side are also aiming to become the first side to retain the Champions League.
The holders go to Italian champions Juventus on Tuesday for the first leg of their semi-final.
Ancelotti, who is also waiting on the fitness of France striker Karim Benzema (knee), insists he will not take any risks with his players at such an important stage of the season.
"It's not the last match of the season," said the former Milan, Chelsea and Paris St-Germain manager.
"It could be that they are not able to play the whole 90 minutes but if there is any risk we will not gamble."
Fifth-placed Sevilla, who are also in the Europa League semi-finals, have not lost at home since March 2014 - a sequence spanning 35 matches across all competitions.\
