Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has decided to include Cristiano Ronaldo in his 20-man squad for tonight's Copa del Rey encounter with Levante.

Ronaldo withdrew from yesterday morning's training session complaining of fever and although there is a considerable degree of doubt whether he can recover in time for tomorrow's first-leg clash, he has been named in the squad. Wing-back Marcelo and midfielder Xabi Alonso have also been included after serving one-match suspensions against Sevilla in the Primera Division at the weekend. Alvaro Arbeloa is suspended while Kaka, Fernando Gago, Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Canales, Sami Khedira and Jerzy Dudek are out injured.
