Brazil's match against Scotland forces Caixa Loterias to reschedule Wednesday's (June 24th) draws, which will be redistributed until Saturday (June 28th); bets remain valid.
The match between Brazil and Scotland for the World Cup, scheduled for Wednesday (June 24th) at 7 pm (Brasilia time), forced Caixa Loterias to suspend all Caixa Lottery draws scheduled for that date. The draws were rescheduled between Thursday (June 25th) and Saturday (June 28th), according to an official statement released by Caixa Loterias.
This is the third change to the lottery schedule since the start of the competition. Caixa Loterias is making the adjustment to avoid the draws competing for attention with the Brazilian National Team's matches.
What happens to the rescheduled competitions?
Lotofácil will have two draws on separate dates. Draw 3719 will take place on Thursday morning (June 25th) at 8:30 am. Draw 3720, which would normally take place on Thursday evening, has been moved to Friday (June 26th) at 9 pm.
This change aims to enhance the Final 0 draw, which has the biggest prize, focusing on the customer and lottery sales.
The remaining lotteries affected by Wednesday's cancellation will be drawn on Thursday evening (June 25th), starting at 9 PM:
⇒ Federal Lottery (draw 06077-1)
⇒ Lotomania (draw 2491)
⇒ Double Sena (contest 2974)
⇒ Super Seven (contest 864)
⇒ +Millionaire (contest 366)

What doesn't change for bettors
Bets placed remain valid for their respective contests, regardless of any change in date and time. Prizes and rules remain unchanged.
The recommendation from Caixa Loterias is that bettors follow the official Caixa Loterias channels to confirm the closing times for bets and the times the draws take place. This week's schedule also includes regular draws on Friday (June 26) and Saturday (June 27), both at 9 pm.
If the Brazilian National Team advances in the competition and new scheduling conflicts arise, Caixa Loterias may announce additional adjustments to the calendar.
