Ed Sheeran’s chart domination is set to continue as it looks like the singer-songwriter could hold the top two spots on the Official Singles Chart this Friday for a third consecutive week.

On today’s Official Chart Update, Sheeran’s Shape Of You remains in pole position, followed by Castle On The Hill at 2. Both songs are still performing well on both downloads and streaming, with Shape Of You notching up three million streams and 28,000 downloads in the last three days alone.

Both track feature on Sheeran’s new album ÷, which is out on March 3.
