I just don't agree with you that Dulio's a better king than Rias and that there really isn't any evidence proving that. There's a possibility he may be but still again there's no evidence.
@Lex79 What you mean is that Issei's the MC and gets the most focus in the series. That doesn't entirely translate to him winning the match against Rias. Issei was the main focus in Volume 23 and he lost the match to Dulio.
Again the plot may have Issei losing. All those things you.listed could be used to make Rias winning look even more impressive by beating such a hyped up opponent. Like Issei's team defeating the Jest of Kings team. I've heard a lot of things about Rias being a wall that Issei needs to overcome. But with all those things you listed, it sounds like Issei's the wall Rias needs to overcome. Issei going independent from Rias could be seen as the same in reverse as Rias has relied on Issei's strength for so long and he's been the cornerstone of her team for so long and now she doesn't have him anymore. So can Rias make it on her own without Issei? The preliminaries proved that she could. And the way her team pressured the members of the Vali Team proved that she doesn't need Issei to be a major threat.
Sorry for the essay. But Rias has as much a chance to win as Issei does. Her winning is not unpredictable. Just because Issei is the focus of the series doesn't mean he won't lose this match.

Issei wasn't the main focus in volume 23. The main focus was the church aspect. The volume mainly went over Dulio's and Rudiger reasons of wanting to win the tournament due to how many innocent kids has suffered because of the Sacred Gear system. Also the volume was focused on the church trio in particular. The only factor of Issei being involved was that he needed to experience defeated as Ishibumi said he would. Other than that, Issei had little focus in this volume.
The thing is Rias has already proven she could do just fine without Issei. Volume 24 has shown it and volume 25 has stated it multiple times so her actually beating Issei would prove nothing. On the other hand Issei beating Rias would prove alot because it would show his independence. Rias has only relied on Issei's strength but that's easily replaced by Crom (who also serves as a wall for Issei). Furthermore, Issei has relied on Rias more than she relied on him since she has practically taken care of him ever since he became a devil and guided him.
Issei is more hyped up than Rias because of his accomplishments and being one of the Heavenly Dragons. Vali is more hyped up than Rias and yet did Rias beat him? No. Rias team is basically the combination of all the tough opponents, rivals and friends that Issei has made down the road with Rias being in the center as his master and lover. And that is a obstical that Issei has to face because he's up against the very person that knows him better than anyone else.
Because of that it would make perfect sense that Issei beats Rias. Rias has nothing to prove by beating Issei. Meanwhile every match that Issei was in had an important aspect to it.
