There is a lot of uncertainty about Sandman season 2 at this point. However, there are several rumors. So that we can take some facts that we saw in the first part, we can speculate some scenarios. One of the rumors is the confrontation between Morpheus and some of the other kings.

In this story, multiple kings are considered divinities and brothers with Sandman, or at least have some relationship with him. There are two that, by the end, give to suppose a confrontation with Sandman, the first being Lucifer, the King of Death or Hell.

Morpheus challenged the demons to recover one of his divine treasures. These gave him supernatural strength. In this battle, he had to face Lucifer himself. However, at the end of the first season, we see how he plans a war against the kingdom of Morpheus and even the other immortals.

Another confrontation that seems latent in Sandman season 2 is against his brother, the immortal of desire. In several parts of the story, this one has certain hostility against Sandman and even comments that he wants to cause much pain. This gives us to suppose another possible confrontation between the two.

A possibility that also sounds a lot is the union of these two beings as a result of the grudge they have. An alliance to destroy or take over the Dream Realm is also an option for this Sandman season 2. 

Likewise, likely, Morpheus is not alone. Apart from his helpers, he may have other entities that serve as support. For example, in the first part, we see how he receives the help of the descendant of John Constantine and may appear again. The appearance of other characters from the comics related to the occult is also possible.
