Mikel Arteta's side will be hoping for revenge, having lost their last three matches against Bayern by 5-1 scorelines.
Arsenal made it to the quarter-finals of the Champions League after breaking their round-of-16 curses against Porto.
A fan account has now claimed that Kim is planning to visit the Emirates for the vital match.
She was in attendance for Arsenal's Europa League exit to Sporting Lisbon last season with her son West.

Another added: "Someone drive her to Etihad please."
After her appearance last March, club supporters believed that Kim was "cursed" as William Saliba and Takehiro Tomiyasu picked up injuries.
There will be no Bayern fans at the match due to a ban after fireworks were thrown onto the pitch during their away fixture against Lazio.
Elsewhere, Manchester City take on Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu for their quarter-final clash.
The La Liga giants have made a special request to Uefa to shut the roof of the stadium to increase the atmosphere for the match.
How Arteta made Arsenal horrible again, with Tony Pulis tactic and gentle star turned into Diego Costa-style hate figure
By Dave Kidd
BOTTLERS, chokers, shandy-drinking southern softies.
These were the charges levelled at Arsenal when they blew the title last season.
And even if the actual reason they failed was because William Saliba got injured and Rob Holding had to start, Mikel Arteta clearly took those accusations to heart.
If his team are not crowned champions next month, the Gunners boss has categorically ensured that they won’t go down being accused of nicey-niceyness.
Because, as well as being thrillingly entertaining and free-scoring when they want to be, this season’s Arsenal are also thoroughly horrible.
They are not here to make friends. They are not interested in being anybody’s second-favourite team.
And so, six days after stink-bombing the Etihad with a display of Mourinho-esque anti-football for a 0-0 draw, Arsenal turned up at the home of former bogey-team Brighton and s***housed their way to a thoroughly impressive 3-0 win.
How wonderful for the travelling Gooners to witness Ben White — against his former club — going down as if he’d taken a bullet to his neck when Brighton’s Pervis Estupinan brushed against him.
White is renowned as a gentle and decent bloke, intelligent enough to challenge the zeitgeist and claim there might be things in life other than football.
And yet suddenly he’s become some Diego Costa-style anti-hero hate figure, his wife goading the masses by posting social-media pictures of them playing a childish card game on a sun lounger after he’d refused an international call-up.
Because Arsenal are horrible again. Even Ben White is a villain.
And that might just be Arteta’s greatest triumph.
