Wales head coach Warren Gatland is expected to have a fully-fit squad to select from for Saturday's World Cup Pool A decider against Australia at Twickenham.
Gatland's initial squad has been decimated by injury, both before and during the tournament, with a number of key players ruled out.
Leigh Halfpenny, Rhys Webb, Scott Williams, Hallam Amos and Cory Allen are all on the injury list but the fitness situation is now improving for Wales.
Full-back Liam Williams missed last week's victory over Fiji with concussion, while prop Paul James had a calf problem, but both could return to face the Wallabies.
"We've had a longer turnaround for this Australia game, which has benefited the lads a lot," said Wales' consultant head of physical performance Paul Stridgeon.
"We managed to give them a couple of days off after the Fiji game, so they come into this game a bit fresher.
"We are all fully fit. We have got a couple of bumps and bruises, but generally we are good to go.
"England losing at the weekend [against Australia] took a bit of pressure off us, but our goal has always been to top the group.
"Warren has placed a lot of emphasis on this, but he has given the boys a bit of freedom and told the boys they can go out and play a bit this week."
Gatland will announce his 23-man squad on Thursday for the game with Australia.
Meanwhile, Wales hooker Scott Baldwin has acknowledged the South American influence from former Argentina star Mario Ledesma on a transformed Australia scrum.
"The scrum has been a big part of Australia's game, which is something you probably wouldn't have said 18 months ago," Baldwin said.
"Mario Ledesma has had a big influence there. It's something we have to step up to as a pack because we haven't been where we need to be. Our timing has been off. There is nothing wrong structurally, but we need to put it right this weekend."
