In all honesty, Anakin and Obi-Wan, for as long as they've known each other, have horrible chemistry.They genuinely don't do as well in teams as they do on their own.
Apparently they do, seeing as how Dooku was getting demolished by them when they starting getting serious. But that won't happen here, because a) Maul is weaker than even a restricted Anakin, b) Obi Wan and Maul would have actively inhibiting chemistry, and c) once Dooku dispatches of Obi Wan like before, he certainly isn't losing to Maul.

And Maul > TCW Kenobi.
But thats if Dooku has a chance to ragdoll either of them in the same fashion.
Theres a chance Kenobi could have broken out, and the novel notes that.

In the Force, probably. But with a blade it isn't clear that he's as good as TCW Obi Wan, and RotS Obi Wan is significantly improved.

Unless if there's evidence that what we see happen was a fluke, I'm going for Dooku winning with telekinesis a majority of the time.

Maul has beaten Kenobi in every scenario they've fought in.
Maul beat him when he fought with Ventress.
Beat him solidly in TPM, and won using the Force when it was him and Opress vs him.

Yeah, it was a fluke.
