A quick trawl of the internet will bring up a huge number of schemes for sale to enable the purchaser to predict the next lottery results with absolute certainty. At this point, any sane person would wonder why the seller doesn't win the lottery themselves. And in some ways, that's the answer to the question of whether you can predict the lottery numbers for the next draw. In spite of all the information to the contrary, you can't. After all, no one can predict a future random event accurately.

Though the national Lottery is incredibly popular in the UK, many people don't realise that it consists of four lotteries, each with its own size of prize money. The smallest and "easiest" jackpot prize is by playing the Thunderball. As far as the odds go, the Thunderball has the lowest. In order, next comes Set for Life, then Euromillions and finally, the Lotta, with odds of getting the main prize standing at a phenomenal 45,057,474 to 1! With odds like those, winning will be hard work!
