[We were] holding short on Runway XX. [Aircraft Y was] cleared to land on short final on [Runway] XY. Other aircraft; [Aircraft Z]; [was] further out on final and ATC cleared to land on [Runway] XY. Tower cleared us to line up and wait [Runway] XX. Both Captain and First Officer questioned each other as to the position of the incoming [Aircraft Z] still far out on final. [We] taxied forward to comply with Tower instructions [of] line up and wait. As we advanced forward; it became more apparent that [Aircraft Z] was lined up on the wrong runway; [Runway] XX. Our aircraft nose had crossed over the hold short line and stopped. First Officer notified Tower of our position and the incoming [Aircraft Z]. Tower directed [Aircraft Z] to go-around [because they were] lined up on wrong runway. Outcome [was] uneventful.
A319 Captain reported cleared on to runway by ATC; while traffic on final was mistakenly aligned to same runway.
