Here in Mexico the term lottery tickets are definitely Juego de Loteria
So in the case of 'buy a lottery ticket' would you say 'buy a lottery ticket'? Or 'buy a ticket for the lottery game'?

Comprar un boleto para la lotería or Comprar un boleto para el juego de la lotería

Is one preferred over the other, or is it a matter of personal taste? Also would the location (different countries) be considered for the correct sentence?
