One fortunate individual stands a chance to win the £3.9 million prize in tonight’s Lotto draw.
In order to claim a portion of the grand prize, participants must successfully match all six of their selected numbers. Even matching just two numbers secures a win for one of the smaller prizes available, while matching five numbers can yield nearly £2,000.
Tonight will also feature the Thunderball draw, offering a top prize of £500,000 that remains intact for the winner without being divided among multiple recipients.
A British lottery player who won a £10.6 million prize has unfortunately missed the opportunity to collect their winnings.
Allwyn, the operator of The National Lottery, confirmed yesterday that no valid claim was submitted for the £10.6 million Lotto jackpot reward.
The winning Lotto ticket, valued at an impressive £10,633,323, was purchased in the London Borough of Bexley for the draw held on Saturday, October 4, 2025.
However, Allwyn disclosed on Friday that the deadline for the ticket-holder to claim the prize had lapsed. The claim period, which expires 180 days after the draw, ended at midnight on Thursday, April 2.
The upcoming Lotto draw, featuring a jackpot of £3.9 million, is scheduled for 8pm tonight. To secure the jackpot, players must match all six main numbers. The chances of winning the Lotto jackpot are approximately one in 45,057,474.
Following shortly after at 8:15pm, the Thunderball draw will offer a top prize of £500,000. To claim this prize, participants must match all five numbers along with the Thunderball.
The likelihood of winning the Thunderball top prize is one in 8,060,598. Additionally, various smaller prizes ranging from £5,000 to £3 are also available. Participants have a one in 13 chance of winning a prize in each Thunderball draw.
