"Encontrarse a alguien" siempre implicaría que fue de casualidad, por ej: Estaba volviendo del trabajo y me encontré a Juan.
"Encontrarse con" podría significar cualquiera de las dos cosas, si fue una cita acordada deberías añadir algo de información para hacerlo más evidente. Por ejemplo: Antes de ir, me encontré con Juan para que me ayude a preparar las cosas.
Obviamente, en futuro casi siempre se entendería como una cita pactada:
Hoy a la noche me voy a encontrar con Juan.
Pero también habría otros casos donde no es así:
Si vuelvo a mi pueblo natal, seguramente me voy a encontrar con varios de mis viejos conocidos.
Si te interesa leer un poco más, este artículo tiene más ejemplos y enseña incluso otros usos de "encontrarse". Si quieres ir directo a la parte que es relevante a tu pregunta, baja hasta donde dice 4) Encounter by chance y 5) When two or more people meet at a place in order to do something https://baselang.com/blog/basic-grammar/encontr...
