How to set static labels for ng2-charts bar charts?

I am using ng2-charts. I have an array of data. I am printing day values in x-axis and marks in the y-axis. Problem is, if I have data only for Tue and Wednesday then it's showing only two but I want like static x-axis (Sun-Sat). As shown below

What I currently have:

Screenshot of 2 bars (a blue on Monday and a yellow on Tuesday) on a bar chart

What I want to get:

Screenshot of 2 bars (a blue on Tuesday and a yellow on Wednesday) on a bar chart

HTML

<div style="display: block" *ngIf="barChartData">
  <canvas baseChart width="400" height="180" style="margin-left:5%;margin- 
top: 5%;" [datasets]="barChartData"
[labels]="barChartLabels" [options]="barChartOptions" 
[legend]="barChartLegend" [chartType]="barChartType"
(chartHover)="chartHovered($event)" [colors]="chartColors" 
(chartClick)="chartClicked($event)"></canvas>
</div>

TS

this.barChartLabels = this.days; //Have week days like[tue,wed]
setTimeout(() => {
 this.barChartData = [
   { data: this.marks },
 ]
})
