I think Bayern is still slightly favorites against Arsenal, Bayern has never failed to advance to the next round when they met Arsenal in the Champions League (4 times).
Arsenal might get 3 points in the 1st leg but most likely they will be eliminated because of the aggregate goals at Bayern home in the 2nd leg later.
I'm not sure why Arsenal are underrated after all the struggles they've had so far. It is true that Bayern Munich is a more experienced team than Arsenal in the Champions League, but Bayern Munich is no longer the Bayern of the past where they were the most difficult team to beat. This season Bayern Munich's performance with Tuchel tends to be weak compared to Arsenal, but it is expected that the matches between these two teams will be difficult to predict instead of calling one of them the favorite.

Both teams are equally favorites in the home match, but whoever can win the first leg first may have a higher chance of qualifying for the semi-finals. I like Arsenal and Bayern Munich, but I tend to hope that Arteta can prove to the world that Arsenal is not worth underestimating.
