It is expected that The Cranberries' music will re-appear in this week's ARIA Albums and Singles charts. 

Meanwhile, Camila Cabello's debut effort, Camila, is predicted to land in the top three of the ARIA Albums chart this week and could push for top spot. 

Other entries on the list this week include Tonight Alive's UnderworldBlack Veil BridesVale and the Muriel's Wedding Original Cast Recording (all top ten), as well as Joe Satriani's What Happens Next (top 20), Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's Wrong Creatures, (top 30) and Corrosion Of Conformity's No Cross No Crown (top 50).

Over on the Singles chart, Ed Sheeran's Perfect is the favourite to take out top spot for the seventh-straight week, but it's likely that Aussie artist Troye Sivan's new cut, My My My!, will crack the top ten.

Expect to see a few new songs enter the list this week too, including Cabello's Never Be The Same (top 20), Taylor Swift's End Game, featuring Sheeran and Future (top 40) and The Greatest Showman track, The Greatest Show (top 50).
