In Saints Row 4, when clearing Flashpoints, is there any way to determine if you are going to fight a Guardian after clearing the aliens, or is it random?

For the majority of the flashpoints in the game, there is no way of knowing whether a Warden will appear.
According to the Saints Row Wiki:
All Flashpoints are manned populated by standard Zin soldiers. Some Flashpoints include mandatory Warden battles, such as Burns Hill (north), Brickston (north-east), Yearwood (north), The Grove (east) and Henry Steel Mills (south-west).
So other than those five, Wardens appearance could be random.
When fighting the flashpoints look at the right side of your TV/Computer screen. There should be a percent number. Dont be in such a hurry to finish the flashpoint is you are wondering if a warden will appear. Before killing the last Alien look at the percent, the percent will read 90%.
