Here I go!~
Namikawa Rensuke vs. Yukimura Hyouga

Stats
Namikawa only has higher TP, Speed and Stamina, which at first glance might seem underwhelming, considering Yukimura is better at all other stats. However, the difference in some stats is minimal, such as Dribbling, Technique and maybe Speed, and in Yukimura's case in the instance of GP and Stamina the stats don't match. Unfortunately, Yukimura has an undeniable advantage in Kick, which is basically the main stat for a forward.

Hissatsu
Panther Blizzard is stronger than Flying Fish, but in turn is weaker than Inazuma Break in every aspect. As Flying Fish is a Long Shot it can be used for phazing the goalkeeper a bit or for scoring from outside the box if you know that the opponent's goalie has no TP.

Fuujin no Mai is weaker than both of Yukimura's dribble techniques, but in turn does not suffer from a high foul rate. Muei Souha could be used if your opponent is a fire type player, but is generally a inferior choice and in my opinion a wasted moveslot.

Air Bullet and Recovery really can't be compared, but both have its uses. Air Bullet is the second strongest wind-elemented block technique, only losing to Kodai no Tsubasa, deals helluva Keshin Damage, but costs a helluva TP for a non-shoot move. Recovery is a really great skill that allows him to get on his game fast again and costs no TP.

Keshin
Kaiou Poseidon only loses to Gousetsu no Saia in the Attack by 10, but the rest is equal, equal. Probably the most equal battle we've had, so not much to say here.

Mixi Max
Ikemen UP! is very situational and Maboroshi Shot is probably the better move, but Maboroshi Shot actually doesn't help Yukimura. It's as strong as Panther Blizzard, but it doesn't get STAB and thus is weaker than Panther Blizzard and a wasted moveslot. But you still can choose from a plethora of moves from the characters and that's what is going to happen. Tsurugi's strongest moves are Fire Tornado DD and Great Blaster, which both have a higher power than the Eternal Blizzard and Wolf Legend from Fubuki. Fubuki's Ice Ground would also be weaker than Air Bullet, but nevertheless a asset considering his Block stat. But as their job is to score some sweet goals, Namikawa's Mixi Max with Tsurugi is better, simply because of the shoot waza.

Potential
The main stat for a forward is undoubtely the kick stat and thus will be focused on. Namikawa's max. Kick stat consists of 146 + (121-1) + 100 = 366, whereas Yukimura's kick stat consists of 162 + (126-1) + 59 = 346. While the difference is not super huge, it still is present and makes Namikawa a better striker.

Conclusion
Both are good forwards, that should be as clear as mud. While Yukimura has still some advantages, Namikawa has the more important advantages. He has an advantage in Kick, Speed and a good GP - Stamina ratio. Yukimura still keeps his advantages in Dribbling, Block, Catch and Lucky, but it should be noted that most of these are just not really important or don't make any difference.
