This is going to be a really fierce battle. I think she's trying to make a comeback from her last single which was recognised as her worst selling single. Her new single Tsuki is more like a mini album of sorts, its not like her past singles.
Namie is big competition imo, don't underestimate avex.
Here's one of her b-side pvs "Neon Lipstick":

Ballerina (another B-side) is just as big:
