Lotto predictions: Numbers to look out for in the next draw
Several numbers have appeared frequently in recent Lotto and Lotto Plus draws, raising interest among pattern-watchers:
- Number 14 has featured in four Lotto draws since 17 September, including back-to-back appearances on 27 September and 1 October.
- Number 48 is appearing regularly across Lotto Plus 1 and Plus 2, most recently on 1 October in both sets.
- Number 05 showed up in two consecutive Lotto draws on 27 September (Bonus Ball) and 1 October, and also reappeared in Lotto Plus 2 on 1 October.
- Other repeat values include 32, 52, and 27, which have had sustained presence in September’s final weeks.
While some players analyse frequency data for inspiration, it is essential to remember that Lotto draws are independently audited and randomly generated. No number is more likely to appear than any other, and past results do not affect future outcomes.

- Borrowing money to buy tickets
- Hiding gambling behaviour from family
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to play
- Chasing previous losses with additional spending
- Ignoring bills or essentials to buy entries
