EuroMillions & Loto: What Are Your Chances of Winning?

The EuroMillions lottery offers a jackpot with odds of approximately 1 in 139.8 million, according to France’s Française des Jeux, Spain’s Loterías y Apuestas del Estado, and the United Kingdom’s Camelot, the operators of the game. This equates to a 0.000000715% chance of winning the top prize.

The lottery’s structure involves selecting five main numbers from a pool of 50, offering 2,118,760 possible combinations, and two Lucky Star numbers from a separate pool of 12, yielding 66 possibilities. Combining these, the total number of potential ticket combinations reaches 139,838,160.

Compared to other lotteries, the odds of winning the EuroMillions jackpot are significantly higher than those of the French Loto, which has a 1 in 19,068,840 chance of matching the five main numbers plus the bonus number. This difference in odds highlights the relative difficulty of winning each game.

The EuroMillions offers 13 prize tiers, providing opportunities to win smaller amounts with less stringent matching requirements. A player matching five main numbers and two Lucky Stars wins the jackpot, currently estimated at €130 million for the draw on February 20th, 2026. Matching five main numbers and one Lucky Star yields an average prize of €405,825.22, while matching just five main numbers offers a prize of approximately €44,144.82.

The latest EuroMillions results, from February 17th, 2026, showed winning numbers of 1, 4, 6, 10, 41, with Lucky Stars 5 and 12, resulting in a jackpot of €64,273,804.60. Over 1.4 million winners were recorded in that draw.
