=Debate, Act I=

Season 2
Burn appeared as one of Aliea Gakuen strongest captains, only surpassed by Gran. When he later formed Chaos with Diamond Dust and played against Raimon, he nearly single-handedly took out Raimon. Not to forget that his team initially was not cooperative. After Raimon then scored 7 goals, he along with Gazel created Fire Blizzard, scoring four more goals plus pulling the team together. A quality act worthy of a captain. He showed great determination, always wanting to win against Raimon.

At the end, the match was interrupted by Gran.

Season 3
After being scouted by Aphrodi, Nagumo accepted the invitation of being part of Fire Dragon, thus proving his determination of challenging himself at world stage. His Atomic Flare also broke through Tachimukai's Mugen The Hand G5, quite a task. He was also part of Perfect Zone Press and of Chaos Break, one of the strongest shots in the entire original series. He never gave up and always assisted Aphrodi in assaulting Inazuma Japan with Chaos Breaks. At the end Chaos Break got stopped by Endou (most likely plot armorz).

As I've not watched the film, Asta's plot will be added in the future.

Moving along to the important part.

Stats
The GP and TP are nearly the same. Burn can't do anything with 5 more TP, the GP can be handy when having Mixi Max and/or Keshin Armed. But it nearly won't have any effect at all.

The Kick stat is equal. It should make them equal in this section. Burn's Dribbling is higher, which makes as he actually has a OF waza. The same can be said with Asta's Block stat. He can use his DF waza to steal the ball back. The difference is that Burn's Dribbling stat is usable, while Asta's obviously isn't. Just for the record, his Block is lower than Eito defenders', which are considered as the weakest characters in the game, Dribble stats. He shouldn't be causing any damage. Of course this applies to Burn, but his Dribbling has a higher chance to penetrate the opponent's defense, plus his waza are strengthened by his SK waza.

Catch is without doubt the most useless stat for an FW. Burn's Technique stat is lower by 2, which in turn would cause a 0.4 difference in the true Kick stat, which is not even a one point difference and likely won't have any effect at all. His Speed stat is higher by 2, not really much of a difference. Burn's Stamina is higher, which could come in handy when, as already mentioned, using Mixi Max and/or Keshin Armed. In conjuction with his GP stat, it won't actually do really much, but possibilities always remain. Asta's Lucky stat is higher by 7, thus giving him more chances of getting Lucky!s.

Shoot Waza
With Atomic Flare seeming to be weakest waza, actually overtrumps both of Asta's and costs 5 TP less [140x1.2x1.2 = 201.6 ; Asta only 168 (lack of Hi no Kokoroe)]. The only "weakness" it has, is that it only deals 25 Shibire Damage. Quite fortunately, Burn also possess Sunshine Storm, thus making it up for Atomic Flare's "lack" of vigor. Also it should be mentioned, that in comparison to Asta's one-minded moveset, Burn possess a Shoot Block and a Shoot Chain.

Offense/Defense Waza
As Spark Edge Dribble is a Fire waza it also gets strengthened by Hi no Kokoroe, thus making it stronger than Asterisk Rock [140x1.2x1.2 = 201.6 ; 160x1.2 = 192]. So the only advantage is that it is dealing more Keshin Damage.

Skills
If it wasn't for Hi no Kokoroe, Burn would have got the short end of the stick. It beneficiates him more than Asta's Crusher. Just like Hi no Kokoroe it powers up hissatsu waza, in return of increasing his foul rate. Rather disadventageous, when for example stealing the ball from a defender and then getting a foul.

Mixi Max
He has a Best Match Mixi Match with Gazel, which grants him Chouwaza!, which in turn further strengthes his techniques, and a strong Wind waza of his choice, compensating his Earth element angst. As Asta does not have one, there is no point further emphasizing on this one.

Conclusion
Under all this aspects, I've proved that Nagumo/Burn is indeed the stronger character.

I'll be awaiting your response...
