Think about it, yes sasuke beat deidara, sasuke beat itachi, but sasuke only beat deidara in the end because of his lightening based attacks, which I dont believe Itachi has. Therefore c4 would effect him which alone is a hard thing to avoid, on top of that the c2 dragon/ landmine plan would work on itachi because once again he has no lightening attacks. And finally genjutsu cant work on him, maybe itachi MS can but we cant really assume it does. So id have to go for Deidara on this one he has defence against itachi's genjutsu, and in the end yea he isnt the best at taijutsu but he is good at avoiding things, with the fact e can fly and that he avoided gai, rock lee, and neji with no arms.
