A single ticketholder has scooped Saturday’s £4 million Lotto jackpot.

They matched all six main numbers to win £4,004,523, meaning that Wednesday’s jackpot is an estimated £2 million.

Andy Carter, the senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, operator of The National Lottery, said: “This year is off to an exciting start as this is already the third Lotto jackpot win of 2025, following on from another lucky ticketholder who won the £4 million jackpot on January 11 and James Clarkson from Carlisle, who, at 20 years of age, scooped the incredible £7.5 million Lotto jackpot on January 4.”

Mr Carter urged players to check their tickets and get in touch to give if they believe they have won.

No ticketholders matched five numbers and the bonus ball to win £1 million.

There were 85 players who each won £1,750 after matching five of the six numbers.

The winning Lotto numbers were 02, 13, 24, 29, 32, 39 and the bonus number was 46.

Set of balls 2 and draw machine Lancelot were used.

No players matched all five numbers to win £350,000 in the Lotto HotPicks, which uses the same numbers as the Lotto draw, while four matched four numbers to claim £13,000.

The winning Thunderball numbers were 03, 20, 21, 27, 36, and the Thunderball is 08.

No-one scooped the £500,000 top prize, but four tickets scooped £5,000 each for matching five numbers.
