First things first, look at the roster.

Look at the types of ships you'll be going up against, destroyers, cruisers, battleships, and carriers if any.

Look at the number of types.  1 destoyer or 4?  1 cruiser or 4? 1 battlehship or 4?  (4 destroyers, gunna be a gun battle. 4 cruisers, better use smoke. 4 battleships, I see targets!!)

Look at the exact type of ship.  Atlanta, oh crap.  Roon, hmm it's got 6km torpedoes.  Azuma, heavy guns, slow reload, no torpedoes.  (Know your ships, Know your ships, Know your ships)

What type of ships do you have vs what the bots have.  It's not always the same ship. (You might have an Ibuki on your team but they have a Seattle)

Second look at the map.

Are there places to hide and/or ambush?  Is there open water?  Do I have to capture a zone?  Am I near places with a lot of Islands.  Where do the bots tend to go in this map?  Where am I on the map and where is everyone else?  Are their friendly cruisers nearby to cover me?

Before you even start your engines these are the details you should be looking for and the questions you should be asking yourself.

The main role of a battleship, as far as battle is concerned, is destroy cruisers.  Yes contesting control points is also a part of your job but fighting is a large part of that.

In order for a battleship to kill a cruiser easily he must have no distractions i.e. other ships.  You should not be engaging in battle with other destroyers or battleships if you can help it.

Long range battles with other battleships are quite common but try not to unless your already spotted.  Once your spotted you'll be fired upon by every ship is in your line of sight.
Even though a destroyer will probably be the first ship you encounter you shouldn't go head to head with one.  Point out the destroyer so that other team members can engage.

It is the battleships main job to kill cruisers to that friendly cruisers can do their job.
It is the cruisers main job to kill destroyers so that you can do your job.
Once the destroyers are dead friendly cruisers and battleships can move in more safely to engage other ships

The main role of a destroyer, as far as battle is concerned, is destroy battleships.  Yes, spotting and capturing/contesting is also a part of your job but fighting is a large part of that.

In order for a destroyer to kill a battleship easily he must have no distractions i.e. other ships.  You should not be engaging in battle with other destroyers or cruisers.

It is the cruisers main job to kill destroyers so that you can do your job.
It is the battleships main job to kill cruisers so that you can do your job.

Pinpoint targets for your team so that they can concentrate fire on them.  Obviously it doesn't always work out this way, say you have no cruisers, or their are too many destroyers to avoid, but generally this is the way it should work.

Once your clear of distractions it should be much easier to finish your main objective.
