ユキは空気を読まない傾向にあるからな
Why is に used above rather then が? I'd thought that when に is used with a noun (in this case 傾向), it indicates something is in the noun (in this case, something is in 傾向), which doesn't make sense
Second example: 私が勝つに決まってるけどな
Why is に used instead of が. To me, に sounds like "decided in victory", which doesn't makes sense

Yes it does make sense, it's about positioning them within the "trend" towards being out of the loop.

Perhaps you already noticed, since you asked about nouns, but is probably 私の勝ち not 勝つ there. にきまっている is a set phrase which you can just learn, it means "no doubt" or "it is certain".
