While no one claimed the €2.6 million Lotto jackpot, a lucky player won €44,357 in Saturday's draw. Seventy-eight raffle winners also each received €500. In the UK, a EuroMillions winner has finally come forward to claim a £83.4 million (€100 million) jackpot.

A lucky Lotto player narrowly missed out on the jackpot in Saturday's draw, winning a substantial five-figure prize instead. While no one claimed the grand prize of €2,653,591, several players secured wins in both the Lotto and Lotto Plus draws. One individual emerged victorious with the Match 5 and Bonus prize, collecting €44,357. The winning numbers for the main Lotto draw were 4, 5, 11, 30, 42, and 47, with the bonus number being 3.

Seventy-eight lucky raffle winners each received €500, with the winning raffle number being 2547. Despite no winner for the Lotto Plus 1 top prize of €1 million, many players still enjoyed wins. The winning numbers for this draw were 12, 20, 31, 37, 42, 44, and the bonus 39. Similarly, the Lotto Plus 2 top prize of €250,000 remained unclaimed, but numerous players walked away with prizes. The winning numbers for this draw were 16, 19, 21, 26, 30, 40, and the bonus 13. Meanwhile, across the Irish Sea, a Lotto winner in the UK finally came forward to claim their EuroMillions prize of £83.4 million (€100 million) nearly two weeks after the draw. The lucky ticket holder matched all five main numbers - 02, 11, 19, 30, and 49 - as well as the two Lucky Star numbers, 03 and 08, in the EuroMillions draw on January 24, securing the life-changing jackpot of £83,474,081.80 (€100.1 million). This impressive win ranks as the 23rd “most spectacular” win in EuroMillions history, according to lottery bosses. According to Allwyn, the UK National Lottery operator, the EuroMillions winner held onto their ticket for 13 days before registering their claim. Allwyn previously stated that it was 'very unusual' for such a large prize to remain unclaimed for an extended period, adding that it was the 'biggest prize to have gone unclaimed at this stage'.
