The Spurs game against United will be televised on Thursday, 19 December.
Arsenal are now exploring alternatives with European governing body Uefa for the Bayern tie. This includes moving the fixture to Meadow Park in Borehamwood, where they play the majority of their Women’s Super League matches.
However, Meadow Park’s facilities do not currently meet Uefa regulations so there would need to be some flexibility.
It is unclear where the ground fails to meet the regulations but Uefa’s rules state requirements on a range of things, including pitch heating and covers, grass height, floodlights, goalpost structures, pitch surrounding areas, artificial pitches and frequency of pitch watering.
There is no video assistant referee (VAR) or goalline technology requirements in the group stages of the Women’s Champions League.
It is an uncomfortable situation for Arsenal, given they have made a point of making Emirates Stadium the main home for their women’s team.
BBC Sport has contacted Uefa for a response.
