Showpiece events, such as some of the men''s quarter-final and semi-final ties, have suffered from slow sales.
But organisers have cited a reluctance from fans to buy tickets before the draw is made on 24 April.
A London 2012 spokesperson said: "We are confident that when we know more about the teams and the draw, people will want to be part of the Olympic Games at the football venues across the UK."
