Well, the next chapter is entitled "Sting and Lector," and Sting said that Lector is the reason he cannot lose. So I think we'll be getting some back story on Sting(which, who knows, might actually make us feel for him!), and then, having remembered his troubling past, Sting will start to make a comeback, but in the end it will all be for naught because Natsu will pull out some new move he got courtesy of Second Origin and win. Or they'll pull a Naruto and have the two clash with their most powerful moves and either have them both go down or one of them emerge victorious. The battle might rage on for a couple more chapters due to the flashbacks. Also, the fact that we're getting Sting's back story makes me think that this is as much Sting and Rogue's fight as it is Natsu and Gajeel's. I could be wrong, but that's just my take on it.
