Bale, 26, hurt his calf on 15 September, but came on as a 66th-minute replacement in their 1-1 La Liga draw at rivals Atletico Madrid on Sunday.

Wales travel to Bosnia-Herzegovina on 10 October and host Andorra three days later needing one point to qualify.

Chris Coleman's side are unbeaten and top Group B.

Bale has scored six of Wales' nine goals in their bid to reach the finals of a major tournament for the first time since the 1958 World Cup.
