Slope the gutter down form there towards the spout.
Got ourselves a kinda r 35 roof assembly when you factor in the thermal bridging.
Fascia boards are installed onto rafter ends or tails as part of the exterior trim after a house is completely framed.
Set the angle of the circular saw blade to match the slope of your roof and run the saw along the top edge of each fascia board.
Above my photo below at left illustrates use of a site built drip edge nailed tight against the fascia board leaving a gap that in turn sends roof runoff behind the gutter.
I felt pretty clever.
