Benzema, who during the sessions in which he was absent at Valdebebas training complex, completed Wednesday's session without any problems. He will be back against Betis on Friday.
Ancelotti, with the return of Benzema and the recovery of Austrian David Alaba, who on Wednesday carried out a personalised plan after making his comeback in training on Tuesday, will field a very similar starting eleven to the one he will opt for in Paris for the Champions League final. He publicly announced that in his rotation plan after winning La Liga title.
Eden Hazard is in a hurry to be fit and continue to get minutes after a month and a half out through injury. He returned against Cadiz and hurt himself in a hard tackle on Carlos Akapo; he received a blow that made him train alone 24 hours ago, but this Wednesday he rejoined the group to test the discomfort.
The game against Betis will be a farewell match for some players, such as Marcelo and Gareth Bale. Both worked specifically, but it is the left-back who is most likely to say goodbye to Real Madrid on the Santiago Bernabeu pitch, which has been his home since January 2007.
