One lucky National Lottery player could become a multi-millionaire tonight, win a nearly £5million jackpot up for grabs. The Lotto draw is taking place at 8pm, and following a shake-up introduced earlier this month, it now follows a two-round format. Nothing changes when buying a ticket, with players still having to pick six numbers, from one to 59, or buy a Lucky Dip.

But now, each line of numbers played will be entered into one draw played over two rounds – which gives two chances to win, still for £2 per line. Players can win big by matching all six main numbers to win a jackpot of at least £1million, or by matching five main numbers and the bonus ball to secure a fixed £1million prize. Tonight, players can also try their luck with the Thunderball, the jackpot of which amounts to £500,000.
