EUROMILLIONS · 5 + 2
EuroMillions odds,
clearly explained.
Five main numbers. Two Lucky Stars. Here is how a valid EuroMillions line works, why the jackpot chance is 1 in 139,838,160, and what past results can—and cannot—tell you.
Illustrative valid combination — not a prediction
Five numbers and two separate Stars
Choose five different main numbers from 1 to 50 and two different Lucky Stars from 1 to 12. The pools are separate: 07 can appear as a main number and as a Star. Within each pool, a number cannot be repeated.
How the jackpot odds are calculated
There are 2,118,760 ways to choose five numbers from 50, and 66 ways to choose two Stars from 12. Multiply them: 2,118,760 × 66 = 139,838,160 valid lines. Matching all seven values therefore has a chance of 1 in 139,838,160 per line in a fair draw.
Order does not matter
A line with 07, 18, 29, 34 and 46 is the same main-number combination regardless of the order in which those numbers are listed. The Stars must match the Star pool, not the main-number pool.
Past draws are a record, not a forecast
A number drawn last week is not “used up”, and an absent number is not overdue. Each valid combination has the same chance in the next fair, independent draw. Historical comparisons can help you understand past matches, not predict future ones.
Try a combination without buying a ticket
Use the generator to make a format-valid line around your own favourites, then save it if you wish. “Balanced” and “higher range” are presentation choices, not winning strategies. Saving a line in WTL does not enter EuroMillions.
