Glory is the ninth album from Spears, while Encore is the 35th from Streisand
Glory, Britney Spears' latest release, has been beaten to the top of the UK album chart by the 35th studio album from US music veteran Barbra Streisand.
Encore: Movie Partners Sing Broadway, a collection of show tune duets featuring Hugh Jackman, Jamie Foxx and others, is her seventh number one album in the UK.
Encore recorded 20,000 combined sales, the Official Charts Company said.
In the singles chart, The Chainsmokers go top with Closer, the DJ duo's collaboration with US singer Halsey.
The Chainsmokers, aka Andrew Taggart and Alex Pall, said they were "beyond grateful at all the support from our UK fans".
"As a relatively new artist, it means a lot to us and gives us a lot of confidence in the music we have coming up," they said,
DJ Snake and Justin Bieber's Let Me Love You remains at two for the fourth straight week, one place above last week's number one record.
