French Ticket Wins EuroMillions Jackpot

One EuroMillions ticket purchased by a player in France won the triple rollover jackpot on Friday 24 August. The ticket matched all five main numbers (05, 06, 12, 19 and 37) as well as both Lucky Star numbers (03 and 07) to win a very impressive €47,570,390, which equates to £37,709,047 for those of you who are in the UK. This was the first jackpot win by a French player since Friday 15 June when two tickets (the other purchased by a player in Spain) shared €26.8 million, so congratulations to the player who managed to win it last Friday!

The jackpot winner wasn’t the only player with something to celebrate in the latest EuroMillions game. Six tickets matched the five main numbers and one Lucky Star to win a second-tier prize of €315,733 (£228,739) each, which is not a bad prize at all for coming close. 11 tickets won €57,406 (£41,589) each by matching five main numbers only and 184 tickets matched four main numbers and both Lucky Stars to win a fourth-tier prize of €1,716 (£1,243) each.

There were 3,660,350 EuroMillions prizes won in total last Friday, and in the UK one player won a Millionaire Raffle prize worth £1 million by matching the number MGG862836. Now that the triple rollover jackpot has been won in the EuroMillions game, the next EuroMillions draw this Tuesday will offer a brand new jackpot of €15 million (around £11 million).

Once again, a few of the most often picked numbers were among those drawn last Friday, so if you want to include one or more of the most often picked numbers currently highlighted for the next game, the main numbers to consider are 50, 12, 04, 19 and 38. The most often picked Lucky Star numbers are 03 and 08.

If you would prefer to take a completely different approach, you could consider including one or more of the most overdue numbers among your entries. The most overdue main numbers right now are 09, 41, 13, 47 and 26, and the numbers 06 and 11 are the most overdue Lucky Stars.

Will any of the numbers just mentioned help someone to win the midweek EuroMillions jackpot of €15 million this Tuesday? Buy your lottery tickets online today and you’ll soon find out! Good luck!
