The best lottery numbers to play in The Health Lottery
Many believe that looking to the past can help us predict the future. Others subscribe to the view that if a number hasn't been picked for a while - it might feel like it's due. However, it is important to know that, statistically, each number has the same chance of being pulled in each draw. These are the numbers that have appeared the least in The Big Win (The Health lottery's main draw, that runs five times a week) in the three months March - June 2024.
If we run with the "if it hasn't been called recently, it may be overdue" method:
- The numbers 11 & 39 have only been pulled 6 times
- The number 15 has only been called 7 times
- The numbers 21 & 47 have only been pulled 8 times
Could these be the next winning numbers?
The best lottery numbers for EuroMillions main draw
To win the EuroMillions draw you will need to select 5 balls from a pool that includes the numbers 1-50.
At first glance, you can see that numbers 1-25 have been pulled more frequently than the 16-50 set.
This could tell us two things:
- The numbers 26-50 could be overdue to be pulled
- However, statistically, the 1-25 set is getting pulled more often
For the biggest prize in the EuroMillions draw, we will also need to match 2 Lucky Stars from a pool of 12 numbers. We will look at this in the next section.
