Have you already verbally accepted the 1st offer? If not, I would politely tell the 1st company that there are other potential outstanding offers and that you would need another week to decide. String them along.

Following the interview with company 2, tell them you already have an outstanding offer but you do prefer working with them. Let them know so they decide quickly.

Companies like to know that you're demanded and that they've made the right decision. This is usually how I get 10-20% higher salary than initially offered.
