Can Sia take out top honours?
Off the back of her hugely successful 2014 record 1000 Forms Of Fear, Australia's own Sia returns this week with her seventh studio album This Is Acting and she is set to battle it out for top spot on the ARIA Albums Chart against fellow pop star Adele, with her acclaimed sophomore album, 25.
The UK singer has dominated the Albums Chart since the release of her latest album back in November, which has not dropped out of the top three even once, but Sia's new offering is set to land comfortably at the pointy end of the charts, ensuring that whoever takes out top spot will be a surprise for all.
To make the battle even juicier, the two artists both worked together on their respective albums, with Sia's lead single Alive (co-written by Adele and Sia) initially intended for Adele's 25.
Sydney trio RÜFÜS will also contend for a spot at the top after their latest, Bloom took out the #1 spot last week.
