Hm, this is a tough one... Naruto obviously sages-up with his 5 minutes, but in a battle like this he might run out and have to go with his less-well-mastered fox mode.
The Uchiha bros have the best genjutsu and some nasty insta-kill abilities. The A & B bros have combo attacks and the best all-around physical stats, as well as Bee being immune to tsukiyomi. Naruto and Minato are the most uneven, but Minato's also probably the best single combatant on the board and I think they're the trickiest pair.
I see Minato dealing with Bee, the "biggest" threat on the battlefield next to him. A I think could take Sage Naruto but not complete Susano'o Sasuke or Itachi.
Gonna go with team Uchiha. Haxxed weapons and attacks. Minato is the strongest by himself though. He just can't beat both Uchiha.
The Uchiha do have some edge... but they can be outlasted by the greater endurance of their opponents. The clock's ticking the moment they're forced to activate Susano'o, especially with Itachi, and both opposing teams have more readily usable big blasty jutsu that would be hard to stop without it (biju ball, rasenshuriken).
Especially in a three way melee, that's likely to be a concern, the other teams might gang up on them.
Raikage and Bee see Konoha's Yellow Flash and decide he is their biggest threat. Minato sees Bee and acknowledges him as the biggest threat. Naruto is gonna go for the Uchiha first, likely Sasuke, but that will just get him killed/genjutsued by Itachi. :O
I honestly think they all just kill each other in a bloody tie.
Minato's going to be held up by either Itachi or A leaving Naruto at the mercy of Bee ans Sasuke. Both should have enough knowledge of how the fox work to know that they have to go for a quick win before he gets worked up.
Itachi would then have to jugggle saving his brother from either Bee or A all the while trying to not get killed by Minato. If Sasuke starts using the full Sussano', then all Bee has to do is go into the full 8 tail form and use a Menacing Ball. Sasuke doesn't have the Yata Mirror and Danzo blew a hole in the back of it(Sasuke's) with a summon.
Itachi or Minato would probably take out A however there's still the 8 tailed Bee to worry about. Itachi's Sussano might be able to block Menacing balls and Minato can just redirect them. Maybe the sword or the shinigami seal might just take apart the hachibi leaving Bee kind of dead. At this point, it's a toss up.
I'd rate A higher than Sasuke. Not only was he winning, but keep in mind Sasuke's backup helped against A too (Darui and C were there, but mostly didn't do much to Sasuke and ended up fighting Suigetsu and staying back in support, while Jugo directly engaged A).
Well, A was fighting against a far weaker and incomplete Susano'o. And the argument about the backup goes more against A. Darui hit Sasuke with a water technique and C tried to use genjutsu on him. Sasuke had to expend chakra to genjutsu C. Jugo and Suigetsu, by blocking, may have directly engaged A but they really didn't *do* anything to him except make him use chakra in order to deal with them.
Sasuke blocked the water jutsu and the genjutsu wasn't taken advantage of due to Suigetsu and Jugo. Jugo did try his big blast but yea, looking it over that was just dodged.
Also, the only real problem A had with Susano'o was when it was also covered with amaterasu, Sasuke wasn't really hitting him with anything, and susano'o-plus-amaterasu is a major chakra hog even with impartial susano'o.
With Bee to provide more long-range, A wouldn't have to take as risky moves and could let Sasuke's endurance run out.
I saw Sasuke block the lightning jutsu but not the water one.
A major chakra hog that Sasuke has be shown using quite a few times actually. A was also on fairly even speed terms with Sasuke until he leveled up of course. And by the time that Sasuke needs to use Susano'o, A would be close up trying to engage him in manly fist fights.
That said, I put money on Minato killing A. Giving the matter considerable thought, if I were A, I'd go after the ****er that cost me my arm. Bee would likely as well, that or he'd fight Naruto to get a weak link out of the picture. Minato is the hardest to determine by motives. Bee is a bigger threat but Naruto would likely go after Sasuke and by extension get in A's way. I'd see him jumping into the fray if only to save his kid before he gets himself killed.
Is this battle inside or out? Outside and I can safely put my money on Uchiha team. Inside might give it to team stereotype.
Edit: Ah wait. I see. This is the area after the temple was destroyed. In that case, Uchiha has a large advantage and so does Minato. So gonna go with Team Uchiha at the moment.

Minato's more that a match for both Uchiha's IMO. I think Danzo got around Sasuke's full Sussano with just his summonig creature or whatnot. Plus neither have hax space-time jutsu like Madara although I'm not sure how teleporting would work around the Yata Mirror.
Even if the Uchiha win, Itachi would probably be the last man standing. I see Sasuke dying almost immediately after Naruto honestly. Then there's the whole Menacing Ball threat that everyone other that A has to worry about.
The fundamental problem with this thread is it's a 2vs2vs2 deal. Going by character motivations we can guess what they'd likely do but we can't be too sure. I assume A and Naruto would head straight at Sasuke but I'm not sure. Bee could use that time to power up while Minato respectfully uses it to try and save Naruto. Itachi, if need be, can always swoop in to save Sasuke.
Sasuke has an advantage no one else does: Flight. He can fly around all day and be out of range except for Bee, who'd have to go version 2 at least in order to hit Sasuke. And when he does that, it will be a race between Minato and Itachi to see who can kill him first while A kills Naruto for being in the way. Itachi and Minato both have answers to Menacing Ball so I can't see Bee being that deadly a threat.
Sasuke also has another advantage: A forest he can set on fire whenever. Burn it, burn it all! And use Kirin on A while he's at it. Then two against one while Minato has no genjutsu showings that I can recall.
5 minutes of prep? Naruto uses that to set up Sage Mode, while I cannot see what A & B would do with that time. Minato could prolly toss his Kunais around the area to set up Hiraishin.
Itachi and Sasuke could work to set up Kirin. Itachi and Sasuke set fire to the surrounding forest with Amaterasu or regular Katons; Sasuke then sends Fire Dragons into the upper atmosphere. At the start of the match, Sasuke sends Kirin towards either group (preferably A & B), while Itachi tries to hit the other group with the Sword of Totsuka or Amaterasu.
With that sort of thing taken into account, I'm guessing A would charge towards Sasuke, albeit much less bloodlusted. Naruto is friends with B, so technically the Cloud Bros and the Blondies could try to double team the Uchihas from the start.
If they're all bloodlusted, then it gets easier.
With the two fastest characters in the series opposing them, the Uchiha brothers could also have trouble landing regular attacks.
Would also be interesting to see how A and Minato match up. A has far superior reactions when he has his Raiton armor up, but Minato has Hiraishin.

Though Naruto knows better than to not use teamwork. Every team should work together.
