- Every number appears on average between 8 and 13 times a year and each number has the exact same chance of being drawn as any other number. The number of previous appearances does not guarantee future performance.
However, a handy little tip is to use the colours to help with your number selection
- Red Numbers are Leading Numbers simply because they have repeated more times than Green or Blue numbers.
- Green Numbers are Following Numbers which have repeated more than Blue numbers but not as often as Red.
- And Blue Numbers are Trailing Numbers which were among the last numbers to be drawn when Euromillions began back in 2004 so they're always playing catch up.
- This is a handy chart to keep you updated with the frequency and colour of each number.
- Odd/Even- For reference note the frequency of Odd & Even numbers to help with your number selection.
An important thing to remember about the 50 Main Ball Numbers and the 12 Lucky Stars- It isn't about frequency, every single number has the exact same chance of being drawn in any game, so lose the Hot/Cold fallacy, it's meaningless.
What it is about is REPETITION. The below graphic will track each number as it is drawn throughout the year and you will clearly see how repetition works after each draw.
After just six draws in 2026 so far, 6 numbers have repeated and more will follow.
Once a number has been drawn for the first time in 2026 you will see it appear in the graphic below and the number of times it has repeated.
Each number is drawn on average between 8 and 13 times each year.
This graphic is better viewed on a desktop or tablet as the image quality may reduce on a smartphone or handheld device.
This is simply a guide to keep track of the main ball numbers as they progress through their cycles each year.
Remember, previous years performance doesn't mean that number will perform the same in each year.
This chart is to help you make an informed choice relating to those numbers already drawn and those due to appear in the current year.
