Fantastic Fortune for Friday EuroMillions
Last Updated: Wednesday 14th May 2014, 13:27
There will be a fantastic fortune with an estimated value of £20 million available to any player who can match the five main numbers and both Lucky Stars in the EuroMillions game this Friday 28 March. This will be the last EuroMillions game of the month, and with two jackpots having already been landed in March – one by a player in the UK and the other by a player in Switzerland – there will be millions of participants hoping to complete the hat trick before the clocks go forward.
The EuroMillions results in the game held on Tuesday 25 March were 07, 20, 26, 28 and 50, with the numbers 02 and 08 featuring as the Lucky Stars. Five tickets (none of them belonging to UK players) were just one Lucky Star away from winning the jackpot, which was worth £12,549,000, but had to settle for a second tier prize of €195,729 instead.
A third tier prize of £73,167 was won by three tickets that matched the five main numbers without either of the Lucky Star numbers, and another 44 tickets matched four main numbers and both Lucky Stars to win £2,494 each. More than 1.73 million prizes were won across all of the consolation tiers, and the Millionaire Raffle game made another player £1,000,000 richer after he or she matched the number JZQ328601.
Whilst it is always a little disappointing to see a lottery jackpot give players the slip, it is good to remember that such rollovers make for even more excitement in future draws. That is certainly the case with the EuroMillions game, because the £12.5 million jackpot that was on offer on Tuesday will now be worth around £20 million on Friday, and the odds of anyone landing it with a single ticket are exactly the same as they are in a regular non-rollover game.
If the EuroMillions jackpot this Friday isn't enough to get you excited, we also have a Lotto jackpot of around £6.5 million to try and win in the midweek draw. You will recall that the jackpot rolled over in the previous Lotto game last Saturday, and that means the Lotto Raffle game will also create more winners than usual tonight, with 100 players guaranteed to win £20,000 each.
Excited? Join the club! Head over to our Lottery Tickets page to get involved in both of the games mentions and you just might win yourself a seven- or maybe even an eight-figure jackpot by the end of the week. Good luck!
