The Uruguayan defender limped off early on in proceedings in the win over Real Betis earlier this month after appearing to twist his ankle whilst making a clearance but has now returned to fitness.
It is unclear if he will be able to start in the game, but it is anticipated he will be the first-choice partner alongside Gerard Pique in defence.
The two sides will then contest the second leg of their Copa del Rey clash at the Camp Nou on Wednesday, with Sevilla leading 2-0 from the first leg that was staged earlier this month.
