NEXT JACKPOT TOTALS:

- Lotto Plus 2: R2 million
Lotto predictions: Numbers to look out for in the next draw
The most recent Lotto draws have revealed clusters of numbers that continue to resurface across both main and Plus games.
- Consecutive numbers such as 22–23 (drawn on 16 August) and 38–39 (9 August) have been appearing in multiple draws, especially in Lotto Plus 2.
- High-value numbers in the 40s and 50s remain active, with 47, 49, 50, 51, and 52 showing up regularly since the start of August.
- Single-digit numbers including 02, 04, 06, and 08 have also been frequently drawn, often accompanied by Bonus Balls in the teens or 20s.
- Several Bonus Balls — notably 19, 28, 33, and 49 — have been repeating across consecutive weeks, with 49appearing in both main and bonus slots.
These patterns can give players an idea of recent activity, but Lotto remains entirely random. Each draw is independent, and past results cannot influence future outcomes. There is no reliable system for predicting winning numbers.
Losing too much money playing Lotto? – Here’s when you know you need help
While Lotto can be fun, some players may find themselves losing more than they can afford. It is important to recognise the red flags of problem gambling, which include:
- Spending more on tickets than your budget allows
- Playing more often to chase previous losses
- Hiding how much money or time you spend on Lotto
- Feeling anxious, guilty, or stressed about gambling
- Neglecting family, work, or social obligations because of gambling
If you notice these behaviours in yourself or someone close to you, it may be time to seek support. The National Responsible Gambling Programme (NRGP) provides free, confidential assistance. Call 0800 006 008 for 24-hour help and counselling.
