This time lucky for the French DJ and Australian funk trio?

Will it be third week lucky for Kungs and Cookin' On 3 Burners to finally nab the UK's Official Number 1 single?

The French DJ and Australian funk trio's collaboration This Girl is 3,500 combined sales ahead on the Official Singles Chart Update, the third straight week that the track has been leading at the midweek stage, with Drake’s One Dance at 2.

Although he has missed out on his first UK Number 1 for the past fortnight, Kungs can see the funny side of Drake's seemingly unstoppable reign:

The rest of the Top 5 remains unchanged from last week's Official Singles Chart. Justin Timberlake's Can't Stop The Feeling sits at 3, Calvin Harris and Rihanna's This Is What You Came For is set for another week at Number 4, and Drake and Rihanna's Too Good is unmoved at 5.

New entries and high climbers

Adele's Send My Love (To Your New Lover) is up eight to Number 7 following her headline Glastonbury slot on Saturday night, with Calum Scott also rising in impressive fashion - Dancing On My Own is up six places to Number 10.

Dua Lipa’s Hotter Than Hell looks set for another big climb this week, currently up six spots to 11, while Dizzee Rascal and Calvin Harris are set to be this week's highest new entry with Hype at 14. Two songs are also on course to hit the Top 20 for the first time; Chainsmokers' Don't Let Me Down propels five to Number 19, and Ariana Grande's Into You struts its way to Number 20.

Christine and the Queens is bound for her first Top 40 placing with her track Tilted - up 28 positions to 25 following her Glasto performance - and Kent Jones is up seven to 32 with his breakthrough UK chart entry Don't Mind. Take That and Sigma's Cry also returns to the Top 40, rising eight places to 33.

Finally, two tracks could be making their Top 40 debuts this Friday. Jonas Blue's Perfect Strangers has bounced 10 spots to 33, and Tinie Tempah's Mamacita featuring Wizkid rockets 19 to land at 39, Tinie's potential 23rd Top 40 hit.
