The EuroMillions draw of 16 January 2026 took place without a millionaire: the jackpot of €77,334,734 — constituted after 14 consecutive draws without a winner in row 1 — was not won. The numbers are 5, 17, 24, 29, 50, accompanied by stars 5 and 10. This is the biggest jackpot of the year, but no one managed to gather the 5 numbers and the 2 stars. On the other hand, hundreds of thousands of players have won modest wins.
Analysis of numbers Of the last 50 draws, this draw mixes "hot" numbers with an unexpected reappearance. The 5 and 29 are among the five most frequent numbers on this window (9 appearances each), while the 17 came out 8 times and the 24, 7 times. Conversely, the 50 was very "cold": it had only appeared once in the previous 50 draws — and it was this time that it reappeared. The even/unfair distribution (2 pairs / 3 odds) and high/low (>25 / ≤25: 2 highs / 3 lows) gives a globally balanced draw, slightly downward and odd.
It should also be noted that the top 5 of the most frequent numbers (44, 5, 13, 29, 42) is represented here only by the 5 and 29: the concentration of two hot numbers in the same draw is observable, without guaranteeing a long-term repetition.
Detail of earnings No player scored 1 (5 numbers + 2 stars): 0 winner (historical average over the period: 0.08). Rank 2 (5+1) also displays 0 winner (average: 1.56), which helps maintain the jackpot for the next draw.
Rank 3 (5+0) has 3 winners, each reaching €11,616.10 (average expected: 4 winners). The intermediate levels give: 9 winners in row 4 (4+2) at €1,113.20, 203 winners in row 5 (4+1) at €103.70, and 446 winners in row 6 (4+0) at €35. Below, the volumes increase sharply: 118,961 players reached 11 (2+1) at €5.10, and 270,885 players reached 12 (2+0) at €3.70. In total, hundreds of thousands of small wins punctuate a draw where the big prize still has to be won.
Conclusion and prospects This print illustrates the cohabitation between recurring numbers (in particular 5 and 29) and the ability of chance to reinject very rare numbers on time (by 50), at the time the jackpot reached €77.3 million. After 14 draws without a winner, the wait peaked without reaching a winner in the first row. The next draw will start with a jackpot estimated at €77.0 million.
For observers, two elements remain to be followed: the persistence of "hot numbers" on the short viewing windows and the possibility of "returns" of so-called cold numbers. Statistically speaking, these movements recall that the past behaviour of a number does not ensure its future, but that analysing the series (hot/cold, parity, high/low distribution) remains an exercise of interest both sociologically and economically.
