After seeing off hot competition from Sam Smith & Kim Petras and Rihanna on Friday, Taylor Swift looks set to lock herself in for a third week at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart with Anti-Hero, which would become her longest-running UK chart-topper to date.

Anti-Hero has so far equalled the two weeks at the top of Tay's only other UK Number 1, 2017's braggadocious Look What You Made Me Do. 

Following the release of their new collaborative album Her Loss, three tracks from Drake and 21 Savage are heading for the Top 10; Rich Flex (3), Major Distribution (4) and On BS (5).

These would add Drake's total of UK Top 10 singles up to a staggering 37, while they would tot 21 Savage up to five overall. 

After weeks of upward momentum, two viral singles could enter the Top 10 for the first time; Venbee and goddard.’s messy in heaven (8) and Meghan Trainor’s Made You Look (10).

Made You Look would become Meghan's first top 10 single in seven years, since 2015's Marvin Gaye with Charlie Puth (her second and most rexent UK Number 1 single). You can read how Made You Look's return to doo-wop has helped Meghan find renewed success in the TikTok age in our exclusive interview with the star here.

K-Trap’s Warm might be this week’s big gainer; re-entering the Top 40 and possibly claiming a brand-new peak (19).

so much for RiRi's comeback(perhaps 6 years too long) despite peaking at 3 and there's no guarantee she'll do it now even with Wakanda Forever realeased this week .Ijust look at Lady Gaga's track earlier this year from Top Gun:Maverick...It didn't even make the Top 10 so film releases cannot guarantee a sales boost anymore...And with Drake reappearing agin doesn't help on streams and downloads.

Sad to see RIRI dropping that much this week!! Really thought she would have claimed the number 1 spot last week! Shame really as LIFT ME UP is such a great comeback single!!

As long as DRAKE isn't our new number 1 single, i don't even care if Taylor remains there even though it is one of her worst leading single in years!!

let’s go drake and 21! her loss is a great album and i was surprised to not see anything from it atop the chart.

i shouldn’t be surprised to see warm gain a lot but i didn’t know the skepta remix would carry it that hard :o still, it’s a great song

Psycho should increase. "Her loss" appears glossy and bright (album cover). I'm not certain that I want it on top. Glad Anti-Hero is still on track to be one.

I’ve not heard anything from ‘Her Loss’ yet, so can’t really comment on it, but the feedback I’ve seen so far doesn’t seem good at all. :/

Let’s just hope it’s better than the album cover! 😅

it’s a great album, my fav tracks are middle of the ocean, circo loco and major distributions.

the cover art really does not do it justice tho 😩

Looks like I’ll be hearing at least three tracks from the album on Friday no matter what! :P

Disagree on the cover art, but I’ll probably wait until Friday’s chart show & check out the tracks that charted before I hear the whole album! :P

Venbee & Goddard in the Top 10, hopefully it lasts until Friday! 🤞

Was honestly expecting Drake at the top, but glad Taylor is set to stay there for a third week! 😊

That would make it her longest #1 hit to date. :)
