Madrid wrapped up the Spanish league title three weeks ago, and since then coach Carlo Ancelotti has rotated his lineups to rest his starters.
But the Italian likely had his top-choice players back in his starting 11 against Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday.
There were only two changes from the Champions League semi-finals victory over Bayern Munich.
The versatile Eduardo Camavinga was in the spot of injured holding midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, who will miss the final due to a foot injury.
The other tweak was goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois starting over Andriy Lunin, the backup who played most of the season before the Belgian recovered recently from an ACL injury.
Ancelotti, however, would not confirm that this will be his starting team for the final in London on June 1.
"I have a week to think about it, we may still have some doubts," Ancelotti said. "We will enjoy preparing for the final and arrive at our best form on Saturday and try to win it."
Toni Kroos played his last home game for Madrid. The 34-year-old midfielder announced this week he will retire after playing for Germany at this summer's European Championship.
He can add to his 22 titles, including four Champions League crowns, with Madrid next weekend.
"I couldn't have asked for more," Kroos said. "These have been 10 unforgettable years. Now the best way for me to finish would be winning another title."
Ukraine striker Artem Dovbyk is set to finish the Spanish league as its top scorer after his main challenger fell one goal short of his mark.
Girona's Dovbyk leads the league in the final round with 24 goals.
Villarreal striker Alexander Sorloth has 23 and had a chance to equal Dovbyk when they visited Osasuna. But the Norway striker suffered a leg injury early and was substituted without scoring.
Dovbyk was two goals behind Sorloth in the goals race until he bagged a hat trick to fuel a 7-0 rout of Granada on Friday.
Dovbyk's last outside threat is Robert Lewandowski, who has 18 before Barcelona visit Sevilla on Sunday in Xavi Hernandez's last game in charge.
Dovbyk joined Girona last summer from Ukrainian club SC Dnipro-1 and helped transform the small club who qualified for the Champions League for the first time with a third-place finish.
Villarreal drew at Osasuna 1-1 after Sorloth's replacement, Jose Luis Morales, scored a second-half equaliser.
Villarreal will likely conclude the campaign with the league's top assist-maker. Midfielder Alex Baena made it 14 assists by setting up Morales.
The game also featured the farewell of coach Jagoba Arrasate after his six years at Osasuna.
Nico Williams capped his superb season by scoring to give fifth-placed Athletic Bilbao a 1-0 win at Rayo Vallecano.
Fourth-placed Atletico Madrid got goals from Samuel Lino and Reinildo Mandava to defeat sixth-placed Real Sociedad 2-0.
The final round had no drama with the title, European berths and relegation spots all decided beforehand.
Madrid, Barcelona, Girona and Atletico will play in the Champions League next season, while Athletic and Sociedad are Europa League bound. Betis will play the Conference League.
