The latest EuroMillions drawing featured a staggering jackpot of £100 million on Tuesday, following the rollover from the previous draw which had a £91 million prize. Additionally, the National Lottery’s Thunderball draw took place on the same evening, offering a jackpot of £500,000.
To win the EuroMillions jackpot, players need to match all five main numbers from a selection of one to 50 and two lucky star numbers from a range of one to 12. The winning numbers for the most recent draw were 1, 2, 4, 28, 44, with the Lucky Stars being 5 and 12.
In the draw, 11 lucky ticket holders in the UK managed to win £887 each by matching four main numbers and two lucky stars. The upcoming EuroMillions jackpot for Friday is estimated to reach £114 million as there were no jackpot winners in the latest draw.
Andy Carter, the Senior Winners’ Advisor at Allwyn, which operates The National Lottery, expressed excitement for the upcoming draw, noting that ten UK players are guaranteed to become millionaires with £1 million prizes on offer alongside the £114 million jackpot.
Players are advised to carefully check their numbers against the winning ones before claiming any prizes. Larger prizes should be claimed directly through the National Lottery, while smaller amounts can usually be claimed at various retailers. Financial and legal advice is recommended for winners of major prizes.
