The Vamps look set to break Ed Sheeran's fourth stint at Number 1 on the UK albums chart this year.

YES THE VAMPS COULD ACTUALLY OUTSELL MULTI PLATINUM CHART KING ED SHEERAN.

As it stands the 'Can We Dance' hitmakers new album Night & Day is currently outselling Ed Sheeran's ÷ 2:1.

Should they manage to maintain this lead, Night & Day will become the British pop rock group's first UK Number 1 album.

In spite of their impressive sales, Wake Up peaked at 10 and Meet The Vamps had to settle for the Number 2 spot.

Night & Day includes the hit singles 'All Night', 'Middle of the Night' and 'Hands'.

I've been up all night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
All night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming

Sometimes I tend to lose myself when I'm out here on my own
I never seem to get it right, but I guess that's how it goes
Ever since you came around, can't nobody hold me down
You showed me how to find myself when I needed it the most

I've been up all night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
All night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming

Wide awake, that's okay, as long as I'm with you
I'll be up all night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming

I'm never gonna find my way
If I don't learn to let go
The past is the past, today is today
And there's things I can't control
The circles underneath my eyes
Tell the truth that I've been trying to hide
I've been waiting for you way too long
Won't you come and take me home
Oh I, I'm praying this ain't all a dream
Can you, you, wake me up before you leave

I've been up all night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
All night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
Wide awake, that's okay, as long as I'm with you
I'll be up all night, no sleep
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
Whoa, as long as I'm with you
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming
Cause I feel like I'm always dreaming

It is also a two part album. The Night edition was released on Friday and the Day edition will follow this December so there's every chance that The Vamps could return to the top spot with the album this Christmas. Fingers crossed that they can do it.

Elsewhere on the chart, London based duo, Oh Wonder, are at Number 3 with their new album Ultralife and this week's MTV featured artist Bugzy Malone is on track to have his first Top 5 EP with King of the North currently sitting at Number 5.

Over on the UK singles chart, DJ Khaled, Rihanna and Bryson Tiller are battling Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber.

As it stands 'Wild Thoughts' is on track to break 'Despacito''s nine week reign at the top of the charts.

Further down on the chart, Demi Lovato has risen to Number 26 with 'Sorry Not Sorry' and her friend and fellow former Disney star, Selena Gomez is on course to score her 11th UK Top 40 hit with 'Fetish' currently sitting quite comfortably at Number 28.
