PinkPantheress edging closer than ever to challenging Miley Cyrus for UK’s Number 1 single

Boy's a liar and The Weeknd's Die For You seem like the best bets to end Flowers' reign.

PinkPantheress is getting her best chance yet to de-throne Miley Cyrus from Number 1. Boy’s a liar (2) starts the new chart week off strong, now less than 3,000 chart units away from disloding Flowers (1).

Flowers still remains at Number 1 in our First Look, a week out from the release of Miley's eighth album Endless Summer Vacation, a special demo version of the song was released on Friday, no doubt helping it boost past PinkPantheress initially.

But you would be a fool to discount The Weeknd. Still riding a viral high after a new Ariana Grande remix, Die For You could reach a new peak of Number 3. Can it go even higher?

After weeks of upwards momentum - and its own Specialist Number 1 Award for its dominance of the Official Afrobeats Chart - Libianca’s People could finally enter the Top 10 for the first time on Friday (10).

Pink’s Trustfall is flying back up the chart again, the sophisticated dance banger could ascend three to a brand-new peak of Number 11.

Following the release of her debut album Amelia, Mimi Webb’s sassy Red Flags is running towards its highest chart position yet (13).

Mae Stephens shows no signs of slowing down. Her Official Chart debut, If We Ever Broke Up continues to grow week-on-week (19).
