They'd have majorly stepped up promo long before now if they were genuinely worried. Radio interviews, press, posters etc. They were pretty on the ball with the rest of the tour...resulting in 100% sell outs so far. They really wouldn't be letting her play to a half empty stadium.
I imagine a lot of tickets were snapped up by 3rd party sellers when she announced the 2nd date because of the hype and now they're stuck with them - but to Live Nation they're sold so aren't bothered/aware that bums won't be on seats.
There'll inevitably be a last minute surge when Gaga arrives in the country later and parades around London, too. Had they been REALLY worried, they'd have got her here yesterday to drum up press and not chill in Germany watching the VMAs.
