Can Shannon Noll Stop Justin Timberlake From Scoring #1 On ARIA Chart With 'Man Of The Woods'?

Staff Writer

Check out the midweek predictions.

More Justin Timberlake Justin Timberlake Profile

On the back of his Super Bowl halftime performance this week, Justin Timberlake​ is on his way to scoring #1 on the ARIA ​Albums chart with his fifth studio LP, Man Of The Woods​.

According to midweek figures, the US artist's new record is on track to debut in the top three and could contend for top spot which would mark his third #1 album in the country. 

However, Australia's own Shannon Noll​​, who is proving to be a fan favourite on the current series of I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, is also gunning for his third top-charting album with ​Unbroken ​which is primed to finish in the top five, as are Brisbane duo ​DZ Deathrays​ with Bloody Lovely​.

All three albums will be pushing to debut in the top bracket, which could see a shuffle from last week's top five which included The Greatest Showman soundtrack, ​Ed Sheeran's ÷ (Divide) and P!nk's Beautiful Trauma​.

Over on the Singles chart, Drake ​is the favourite to retain top spot with ​God's Plan after it pushed Sheeran's Perfect ​from #1 following an eight-week reign.
