Default uk lotto dream numbers

hello again, can some one hlep with this formula,

=IF(AND($B$4=B7,$C$4=C7,$D$4=D7,$E$4=E7,$F$4=F7,$G $4=G7),"!! JACKPOT
!!",IF(AND($B$4=B7,$C$4=C7,$D$4=D7,$E$4=E7,$F$4=F7 ),"1st 5
Balls",IF(AND($B$4=B7,$C$4=C7,$D$4=D7,$E$4=E7),"1s t 4
Balls",IF(AND($B$4=B7,$C$4=C7,$D$4=D7),"1st 3
Balls",if(and($b$4=b7,$c$4=c7,"1st 2 Balls",""))))

its to check looto cells $b$4 to $g$4 agains my ticket b7 to g7
dont know if everyone knows how the lotto dream numbers works
but you must match a minimum of 1st 2 numbers to win
so answers can only be 1st 2 balls, 1st 3 balls , 1st 4 balls, 1st 5 balls ,
jackpot

theres probably an easyer way to do the samething but i aint got a clue on
it...

Default uk lotto dream numbers

sorry don not what i'm after. yur formula returns the correct number of
balls, but in order to win you must have the balls in correct order.
b5 to g5 = 10,28,30,34,36,40
b7 to g7 = 8,27,30,34,36,40
your formula returns 4 in this case
i need it to match the 1st 2 numbers to give a result

so if b7 to g7 = 10,28,30,35,38,40 would = 3 numbers
where as b7 to g7 = 9,28,30,35,38,40 would = nothing
also b7 to g7 = 10,27,30,34,36,40 would = nothing

hope this helps , dunno if i've made it more complicated now

but i can still use your formula to tidy up anther thing i've got going so
many thanks for that
