Raheem Sterling and Aymeric Laporte have been named in Manchester City's initial squad for Wednesday's Champions League last-16 first leg with Real Madrid.
England international Sterling had missed City's last two games with a hamstring injury, while Laporte left the field before the hour mark in Saturday's 1-0 win against Leicester City.
However, both players have been included as part of the Premier League champions' 22-man travelling party for the clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.
