MADRID, Nov 5 (bdnews24.com/Reuters) - Striker Ruud van Nistelrooy and central defender Pepe have recovered from injury and are available for Real Madrid's Champions League Group H match against Juventus on Wednesday.
"We can call on them tomorrow," coach Bernd Schuster told a news conference on Tuesday.
"Ruud is feeling in really good shape and has no pain," Schuster said.
"But we are still not completely sure how we will do things. It will be a very hard match from the start so we don't know yet if he'll start or come on during the match."
The Dutchman injured his right knee against Juve in last month's 2-1 defeat in Turin and missed Sunday's 1-1 Primera Liga draw at Almeria.
Pepe suffered a knock on the thigh in Almeria and was substituted in the second half as a precaution.
