Barcelona says defender Adriano has recovered from injury and will be available to play at Real Madrid on Saturday in the Spanish league.

The Brazilian missed Barcelona's last two matches with a muscle pull in his left thigh.

The Spanish club also says midfielder Ibrahim Afellay's recovery from a torn ligament in his left knee is going ''very well'' and that he would continue his treatment in the Netherlands.

The 25-year-old Dutchman had surgery after injuring his leg during practice in late September.
