Although they currently sit in 11th place, Everton are just three points away from sixth.
The opponent standing in their way next is a formidable side with Pep Guardiola at the helm, who has steered them back to within touching distance of another Premier League title.
Man City are unbeaten in their last six games across all competitions, heaping the pressure on title hopefuls Arsenal.
In positive news for Everton, Moyes has confirmed that Beto, who missed the game against West Ham, will be available for selection on Monday. The 28-year-old was taken off against Liverpool following concussion protocols but has rejoined the squad.

“He’s had to go through the protocol for concussion, which was correct, so he’s gone through that period and has been training,” Moyes said on Friday.
Asked about any other fitness concerns, Moyes added: “At the moment, everything is as we are. Like always, we have a few knocks and niggles so we’ll just have to see how we are come Monday night.”
Jarrad Branthwaite and Jack Grealish remain sidelined with hamstring and foot injuries respectively, and neither seem likely to appear again for Everton this season.
