Chelsea's league challenge is over, according to Everton manager David Moyes, whose side host Avram Grant's men in at Goodison Park tomorrow night.

The west Londoners are five points behind leaders Manchester United with just four games left after Emile Heskey's last-ditch equaliser for Wigan at Stamford Bridge on Monday.

If they beat Everton to cut the gap to just two points and United fail to get a result at Blackburn on Saturday, the west Londoners will enter their April 26th meeting with the champions with renewed hope.

Moyes, though, is confident the trophy will stay in Old Trafford.

"Chelsea will not win the title. Manchester United will do that now," the Scotsman said today. "I believe it is United's championship. It would need them to make a real mess of things for that not to happen.

"Chelsea have pushed them hard, but it is United's to throw away now.

"Avram Grant has done a good, steady job. They have a very good squad, you cannot tell who they will play because they can change the team around.

"It is very hard to overhaul Manchester United, they have been doing it at the top for years and years - they are used to it.

"For a new manager to come in and achieve that sort of success in one swoop is not easy."

Moyes' own ambitions have also been curtailed after Liverpool's win over Blackburn and Everton's draw at Birmingham left them five points behind their rivals in fourth spot. His sights are now on the Uefa Cup rather than the Champions League.

"Our focus is to make sure we secure a European place. It will be tight and these next four games will all be very difficult. We need to concentrate on holding onto what we have already got," said the Scot. "I also feel that it will be hard for us to make fourth now. So in lots of ways the importance of the game has gone really for both clubs."

Everton are likely to be without Mikel Arteta (groin) and Leon Osman (ankle) for tomorrow's game.
