Noel Noa's Strategy Against PXG
Blue Lock chapter 248, titled Final Fight, may see Noel Noa speaking to his players for the last time before the match against Paris X Gen. Considering that the previous chapter saw Master Striker Noel Noa only speak to the Blue Lock players, there is a good chance that the next chapter will see him speaking to the entire team.

This time, Noel Noa may want to discuss his team's strategy before their big match against Paris X Gen. Thus, the upcoming chapter may likely reveal the starting lineup for Bastard Munchen against Paris X Gen.
With the starting lineup set to be revealed, fans will likely learn how the Master Striker plans to use Hiori Yo, Kurona Ranze, Kiyora Jin, and Igarashi Gurimu.

While Noa may get confused over whom to use at right back - Hiori or Kurona, he had also promised Kiyora that he would play him in the next match. Additionally, Igarashi has also been shown trying his best to get some game time. However, considering how Noa operates his team, the chances of Igarashi starting the match seem very low.
That said, the Master Striker did look over Kiyora and Igarashi's training. Thus, he may have a plan in store for them.
Focus on Reo and Nagi
There is a good chance that the episode's title, Final Fight, is referring to Nagi Seishiro and Reo Mikage's final fight in the Neo Egoist League. If that is the case, there is a good chance that the upcoming chapter will focus on the two players and their match against Manshine City.

With that, fans may be able to witness a match-up between Nagi & Reo and Bachira & Otoya. Considering that both teams are performing poorly, both of them may want to end their campaign strongly.
