According to the Official Charts Company, the LP is fending off competition from Scouting For Girls's Everybody Wants To Be On TV and MGMT's Congratulations, which are currently at two and three respectively.
On the singles chart, Scouting For Girls are still at number one with 'This Ain't A Love Song', but are locked in a battle with Usher's 'OMG' and Professor Green's 'I Need You Tonight'. Green's single has sold only 4% fewer copes than the Scouting For Girls' track.
Elsewhere, Selena Gomez has entered the top five with 'Naturally', and Kelis's 'Acapella' has entered the top ten.
Official Charts Company managing director Martin Talbot said: "While two strong new albums are leading the way this week, the singles market really is too close to call too. Any one of three singles could be topping the Official Singles Chart when it is unveiled on Sunday."
