Coach Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that Cristiano Ronaldo will return to the fold when his side face Espanyol on Saturday.
The Portuguese was injured during the recent draw with Real Valladolid and sat out last week's loss to Celta Vigo in a bid to rest ahead of the Champions League final.
However, he will be available when the Spanish giants host the Catalans as they look to finish the Liga season on a high.
"Cristiano Ronaldo will play because he is available and has no problems," Ancelotti told reporters.
"The team will be decided tomorrow. Only Pepe, Jese and Diego Lopez are not available. We'll give Sami Khedira some time because he needs it after a long period out.
"He did very well in Vigo for an hour and had no problems afterwards. He's an option for the Champions League final.
