Singer-songwriter George Ezra looks set to dethrone The Greatest Showman soundtrack from the top of the UK album chart. The Greatest Showman has been at the summit for 11 weeks and still has the edge when it comes to streaming. However, Ezra’s lead on physical and download formats puts it firmly ahead by more than 2:1 at the midweek stage, said the Official Charts Company. In the singles chart, Rudimental have this week’s number one in their sights. However, less than 2,500 combined sales separate the top three at the midweek stage, with Ezra’s Paradise up three places to two and Portugal.
