Lotto 6/49 Number Statistics
How often each of the 49 Lotto 6/49 numbers has been drawn, how long since each last appeared, and which numbers turn up together most often.
Based on the 495 most recent draws we have confirmed — Jan 22, 2022 to Oct 17, 2026. 5 incomplete records were excluded.
Every number has exactly the same chance in every draw. These figures describe draws that have already happened — they cannot predict, and do not improve, what comes next.

Lotto 6/49 statistics FAQ
Which Lotto 6/49 numbers are drawn most often?
Across the 495 draws on this page (Jan 22, 2022 – Oct 17, 2026), 9, 42, 37, 35, 41 came up most. If every number fell perfectly evenly, each would have appeared about 60.6 times, so the spread you see is ordinary variance in a random draw rather than a pattern.
Are overdue Lotto 6/49 numbers more likely to come up?
No. A Lotto 6/49 draw has no memory of the draws before it, so a number that has not appeared for fifty draws has exactly the same chance as one drawn last week. The "overdue" list below is a record of what has happened, not a forecast. Anyone telling you otherwise is describing the gambler's fallacy.
Can these statistics improve my chances of winning?
No, and nothing can — the odds of a Lotto 6/49 line are fixed by the rules of the game. What you can change is how you choose and what happens afterwards: picking with a wheeling system gives you stated coverage guarantees, avoiding popular combinations means sharing a prize with fewer people if it lands, and scanning your ticket means you never throw away a winner.
How are these Lotto 6/49 statistics calculated?
They count the numbers in the last 495 confirmed Lotto 6/49 draws we hold, from Jan 22, 2022 to Oct 17, 2026. Frequency is how many of those draws contained a number, "draws since" counts back from the most recent one, and a pair is counted when both numbers appear in the same draw. Nothing is weighted or adjusted.
