Two of Real Madrid's most important players wil be available for Sunday's clash against Atletico, as Sergio Ramos and Gareth Bale returned to the team's training sessions after Wednesday's win over Malmö. Both players came down with injuries during the UEFA Champions League's opening game against Shakhtar Donetsk, and they could add depth to a team that has not found its true self in all of this season's outings.
Earlier today, sources revealed that James Rodriguez would also be fit to play against Los Colchoneros, but his performance against their neighbors could be limited to coming off the bench, in order to prevent more complications for the Colombian midfielder.
Regarding Ramos, the player seemed fully recovered from an injury to his left shoulder, while Bale's left calf got better sooner than expected. In fact, Bale will be included in Wales' National Team that will try to secure their spot in the 2016 Euro.

With three of his four key elements recovered, the only absentee from Sunday's match will be Pepe, who is still struggling with physical problems.
