5. The Numbers

  • Every number appears on average between 8 and 13 times each year and each number has the exact same chance of being drawn as any other number. A handy little tip is to use the colours to help with your number selection.
  • Red Numbers are Leading Numbers simply because they have repeated more times than Green or Blue numbers.
  • Green Numbers are Following Numbers which have repeated more than Blue numbers but not as often as Red.
  • And Blue Numbers are Trailing Numbers which were among the last numbers to be drawn when Euromillions began back in 2004 so they're always playing catch up.
  • This is a handy chart to keep you updated with the frequency and colour of each number.


This is simply a guide to keep track of the main ball numbers as they progress through their cycles each year.


Remember, previous years performance doesn't mean that number will perform the same in each year.


This chart is to help you make an informed choice relating to those numbers already drawn and those due to appear in the current year.
