After a few weeks hanging around in the top 5, Clean Bandit are hoping to dethrone Ed Sheeran of the #1 spot with the help of Zara Larsson on 'Symphony', its most likely in the bag for Clean Bandit & Zara, but anything could happen been a low sales week something big could drop. New single releases this week come from Shawn Mendes 'There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back', Lana Del Rey feat. The Weeknd 'Lust For Life', Paramore 'Hard Times', Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee feat. Justin Bieber 'Despacito' and a possible re-entry from Steps 'Scared of the Dark', also new peaks for the Disciples 'On My Mind', Lady Gaga 'The Cure' and Jason Derulo feat. Nicki Minaj & Ty Dolla $ign 'Swalla'.

In the album chart will Steps be able to dethrone Ed Sheeran with their brand new studio album 'Tears on the Dancefloor' or will they have to settle for #2. Other brand new album releases from Imelda May 'Life Love Flesh Blood', Texas 'Jump On Board', While She Sleeps 'You Are We', Incubus '8', Wilkinson 'Hypnotic', Brad Paisley 'Love and War', Maximo Park 'Risk and Exist and Sheryl Crow 'Be Myself'

Would love to see Steps get no.1 in the albums. How likely is it exactly?

Not very likely I'd say. Ed will have a 15k+ streaming advantage from the outset, based on last weeks sales. They may be no 1 in the first set of midweeks but will probably drop behind during the week.

Divide sold 62k last week and 84k the week before. Presumably meaning he'll sell about 50k this week which I think will still be way ahead of what Steps will sell.

To be honest they should bag it, but with sales so low, and something else drops, it can easily get beaten, technically all you need is 42k plus for a #1 this week.

My absolute ideal scenario is both Clean Bandit/Zara and Steps taking the singles and albums pole position respectively.

Steps could get the number one. 50k isn't too difficult for all the hype.

Their strength will probably be physicals. They're #1 on iTunes though which is a good sign!

Gaga has reduced The Cure to 59p which should extra-boost any surge this week.

Ed will make it eight weeks at the top on the initial run for 'Divide' to equal the initial run of 'Multiply' but likely that Gorillaz will take the top spot the week after.

Midweek seems to getting earlier every week. In fairness to H you can't blame him building up their chances, they are definitely performing better than I thought.

I highly doubt Steps will get to #1 unless they're on like 25k already

ohh Minty just posted, looks like Steps could be #1??

Neil Claxton‏Verified account @mintroyale
Steps are going to have a nice number 1 album this week. Imagine how ridiculous that would have sounded 6 months ago.

he also confirms CB at #1 in singles

Neil Claxton‏Verified account @mintroyale

Also, Clean Bandit could well finally knock Sheeran off the top and get to number 1. Hurrah!

The new Dua Lipa single might not even get top 40 this week. The label will probably panic and move the album back to October.
