Bale, who was cleared of a serious muscle injury having being substituted at half-time during Los Blancos’ La Liga draw with Atletico Madrid last weekend, is named in a 25-man squad which also includes Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey, who was given special dispensation to miss his side’s Europa League appointment with Qarabag on Thursday as his wife is expecting twins.
Midfielder Joe Ledley and defender Tom Lockyer are ruled out, while George Thomas and Jazz Richards come in.
