Clean Bandit could secure their third Number 1 single this Friday as their latest release Symphony heads up today’s Official Singles Chart Update.

Ed Sheeran follows himself at Number 3 with Galway Girl, while Harry Styles’ Sign Of The Times holds at Number 4. Rising a whopping 138 places to complete the Top 5 is Shawn Mendes with his new single There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back. The song was released last Thursday and has been added as the opening track to a deluxe version of Shawn’s album Illuminate on streaming services.

Following the track becoming his first Top 40 hit last Friday, J Hus’ Did You See is up 10 to Number 24, while French Montana and Swae Lee’s Unforgettable flies 34 placings to 29 thanks in part to the success of the viral dance craze the Unforgettable Challenge.
