The EuroMillions, played across nine European countries, has created hundreds of millionaires in the UK since it launched in 2004. While jackpots of more than £100 million aren't uncommon, tonight's £34 million prize remains a significant sum - enough to clear debts, buy homes, and secure futures.

Thunderball is fast-paced and straightforward. Players choose five main numbers from 1 to 39, along with a Thunderball from 1 to 14. Matching all five numbers and the Thunderball can earn a top prize of £500,000. Draws happen twice a week, giving players frequent opportunities to test their luck and feel the excitement of the draw. The game rewards both big wins and smaller successes, making it perfect for those who enjoy regular chances to win.

The National Lottery reports that the chance of selecting all seven numbers correctly in EuroMillions is just 1 in 139,838,160.

However, some numbers have appeared more often than others. Number 20, for example, is the standout, having been drawn around 70 times.

For smaller wins, the odds are more promising. Players have a 1 in 22 chance of matching two numbers, and the overall likelihood of winning any prize in EuroMillions is approximately 1 in 13.
