As seen in the previous episodes, the Pro Heroes and students were seemingly happy that despite how the situation seemed, the situation wasn't the worst possible outcome. However, the anime's preview video questions this as, according to it, the next episode will see Gigantomachia make his return. As one might remember, he had caused a lot of destruction in the previous battle. Thus, the heroes believed his presence to be the worst situation.
That said, the preview video also retracts its question and states that the situation still hadn't reached the worst possible outcome. This could mean that the next episode will see some more reinforcements arrive to help the heroes.

While Hitoshi Shinso had a huge part to play at the start of the final war, he has effectively been absent ever since. Therefore, considering that he could be seen in one of the preview images, there is a huge chance that he will have a big role to play in the upcoming episode.
As fans should remember, Shinso's Quirk allowed him to brainwash his target. This could be the reason why the preview video hinted at the worst possible outcome but retracted it. There is a chance that while Gigantomachia does enter the battlefield, Hitoshi Shinso might control him and use his powers against All For One. This could be a huge boost for the heroes in the final war.

As seen in the episode preview Mina Ashido, also known as Pinky, is set to have a big moment in the next episode. While one cannot deduce who she is set to fight, it is clear that she is on a mission alongside Eijiro Kirishima.
Therefore, there is a good chance that Kirishima gets attacked by a villain and Pinky arrives to save her. Up until now, the anime hasn't given fans a lot of moments to celebrate Mina Ashido. Therefore, all fans of the hero should possibly tune in for the next episode.
