Coleman - who first suffered the injury in Everton's draw against Liverpool - returned to the bench while away on international duty with the Republic of Ireland.
Coleman will be unavailable for Everton on Saturday, Carlo Ancelotti will have South American contingent.
Yerry Mina, James Rodriguez, Allan and Richarlison are all set to return to Goodison park fit and Covid-free.
Long-term absentee Jean-Philippe Gbamin is also said to be closing in on a return to the squad.
'We have Seamus Coleman unavailable for this game, but the others are in good condition,' said the Italian.
'The players from South America came back yesterday. They were okay, they tested negative. They trained on Friday. It seems they don't have problems.
'They are quite fit, a little bit tired from the travel, but we have time to recover until Sunday.'
Ancelotti also had positive news on Gbamin, who has played just 135 minutes in two matches at the start of last season before a thigh injury, numerous set-backs and then an Achilles problem sidelined him.
'He is in the last part of his recovery and will be ready in two or three weeks to train and play,' added the Toffees boss
