Cristiano Ronaldo will start for Real Madrid this evening when they face Borussia Dortmund in the semi-final of the Champions League.
The Portuguese forward missed the derby victory over Atletico Madrid at the weekend following a thigh injury.
But Jose Mourinho has deemed the attacker fit enough to take his place in the starting XI against the Bundesliga side, as they look to overturn a 4-1 deficit form the first leg.
Elsewhere, Michael Essien starts at right-back, whilst Luka Modric plays in a midfield holding position instead of Sami Khedira.
For Jurgen Klopp’s men, they name their full-strength XI as they look to make their first Champions League final in over a decade.
Real Madrid: Diego Lopez, Essien, Ramos, Varane, Coentrao; Xabi Alonso, Modric; Di María, Özil, Cristiano Ronaldo, Higuaín
Borussia Dortmund: Weidenfeller; Piszczek, Subotic, Hummels, Schmelzer; Bender, Gundogan; Gotze, Reus, Blaszczykowski; Lewandowski
