Tottenham begin their maiden Champions League campaign with a qualifying round first leg test on a plastic pitch in Switzerland on Tuesday night.
Opponents Young Boys are currently seventh in their league after five matches but have already eliminated Fenerbahce from this year's tournament.
Spurs captain Ledley King's knee will not be risked and midfielder Jermaine Jenas (calf) has also not travelled.
David Bentley, Jamie O'Hara and Jonathan Woodgate are all still out.
