Real Madrid coach Julen Lopetegui says Gareth Bale is fit for tonight's clash at Alaves.

Bale pulled up short in midweek, admits Lopetegui.

He said, "We've still got a few with injuries, particularly Marcelo and now Dani, who could be out for a few weeks. We've got Isco with appendicitis and a few other knocks, Bale, for example, but it's nothing serious. We have to manage the situation and get through it.

"The more players we have available the better when it comes to making decisions.

"He's a key player. He's fine and he trained well. He felt some discomfort but picked it up in time before it became anything serious and he's ready to play."
