One ticket holder could become the winner of a record-breaking amount of money on Tuesday.
The next EuroMillions jackpot could rise to £210million, which would become the highest prize ever won in the UK.
If there are no winners on Tuesday, it will now stay at €250million for a further four draws until it must be won in the fifth draw.
In the ‘Must Be Won’ draw, if no ticket matches all five main numbers and two Lucky Stars, the jackpot prize will roll down into the prize tier where there is at least one winner – likely to be five main numbers and one Lucky Star.
A single UK winner would instantly become the nation’s largest-ever National Lottery winner.
They would knock into second place the anonymous winner of a £195million prize in 2022.
It would also make the winner twice as rich as Sir Andy Murray on £100million, leave £75million England captain Harry Kane in the dust and just head off Anthony Joshua with his £195million fortune.
But they are still yet to be as rich as Rory McIlroy (£225m), Ed Sheeran (£340m), Lewis Hamilton (£350m)

It follows an Irish family syndicate claiming a EuroMillions jackpot worth 250 million euros (£216 million) on June 17.
The jackpot had reached the maximum amount on June 6 after rolling over several times.
This historic Irish win surpassed the previous EuroMillions record of £195million, which was won by a UK ticket-holder in July 2022.
The winning ticket was sold in a retailer in Munster, County Cork, the Irish National Lottery said.
The winning numbers from the draw were 13, 22, 23, 44, 49 and Lucky Stars 3 and 5.
Under Irish National Lottery rules, jackpot winners can choose to remain anonymous.
‘We are absolutely thrilled to have heard from our EuroMillions winner,’ Irish National Lottery spokesperson Emma Monaghan said.
‘At this point, our priority is to give them the necessary time and space to make arrangements and let this life-changing news sink in.’
Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, said: ‘Tuesday’s jackpot has the ability to transform not just the winner’s life, but the life of the friends and family around them.
‘So, make sure you get a ticket to be in with a chance of banking Britain’s biggest ever win.’
Players should get their EuroMillions tickets – either in store or online – before 7.30pm on Tuesday.
