Lotto Plus 1 hot and cold numbers

Ball 27 is the most-drawn Lotto Plus 1 number: it has come up 189 times in the 1 216 draws it could have been drawn in, which is 15.54% of them. That is counted across every Lotto Plus 1 draw from 3 January 2015 to 5 September 2026.

Current and historical ranges. Since 1 June 2026: 6 from 52 plus a bonus. Draws from 24 September 2025 to 31 May 2026 used 58 balls. Historical numbers are kept. This table lists the current pool. Rates use only the draws in which a number was eligible; the results archive retains all historical numbers.

Every ball, ranked by how often it actually appears

How this was worked out

Every Lotto Plus 1 draw in the archive was counted directly: 1 216 draws from 3 January 2015 to 5 September 2026. A ball's rate is its appearances divided by the number of draws in which that ball was in the pool, so balls added later are not penalised for having had fewer chances. Longest gap is the largest number of consecutive draws that ball was absent for.

What this does not tell you. A lottery draw has no memory. Every ball has exactly the same chance in the next draw whatever it has done before, and a ball being overdue does not make it more likely. These figures are a record of what has happened. They are not a prediction and they do not improve anyone's odds.
