Well, we haven't yet seen Zannah at her peak, but Bane calculates her potential to be even higher than his own, and she has shown remarkable abilities in ROT.
However, adding Mace Windu makes this a hundred times more difficult for the pair.

Bane and Zannah die. The way I see it, Mace will go up against Bane, and Kolar, Fisto, and Tiin will go out against Zannah- seeing as she is no where near as good as Sidious in lightsaber combat, she won't be able to hold them off and will promptly be curbstomped. All are some of the order's greatest swordbeings, not really Johuns.
Mace vs. Bane can really go either way- Bane will crush him in a force fight, but Mace, I believe, can take a saber match, virtue of his shatterpoint ability and his Vaapad's superconducting loop, enabling him to go on the defensive and strike at the percise moment, to lop off Bane's hand or disarm him. But Bane could very possibly defeat him- and if he will, it will be with extreme difficulty.
The trio have already curbstomped Zannah at the time. They go up against Bane all together, and defeat him.
Realistically, her modified saberstaff Soresu - which kept her alive against a ticked off Bane for a decent amount of time - should hold them off for quite a while - certainly long enough for Bane to wheel away from Mace as he did with Raskta and launch a Force assault on the weaker Jedi Masters. Considering his Force-pushes demolish buildings and camps and pulverize humans, and his lightning reduces its victims to ashes and rips through the defenses of exceptional Jedi Masters, they wouldn't stand a chance.
1] The Jedi, although it'd be a ridiculous fight and not all of them are walking away.
2] The Sith, with pitiful ease.
3] Could go either way, but I'm banking on the duo if they fight smart. It all comes down to Bane wheeling away from Mace just long enough to utterly demolish the other Jedi via his titanic Force attacks, leaving Zannah to mop up with whoever is left, and then help Bane take on Windu. If Bane gets trapped by Mace - which is unlikely, because there're a total of three places on his body that Mace can actually hit with any effect - the Jedi could take it.
Seriously, stop teaming Mace up with these goons. Give him Kas'im, or something.
Slight issue with the Zannah issue there Faunus:
Zannah's Soresu kept her alive with Sarro and Johun only because Johun was a worthless idiot and Sarro couldn't slaughter her thanks to that. Two Jedi like Agen and Kit on her, both master swordsmen, experienced veterans accustomed to working together? That doesn't look good for Zannah.
And it'd be interesting if the other three are on Bane while Mace rips through Zannah like a wet paper bag in three seconds...and Mace has a hell of an advantage: He is more experienced a fighter than Bane, and has the physical strength to keep Bane from overpowering him, plus a totally unfamiliar style.
and Force wise, I do see do see Mace's defense being at the least, competent enough to survive what Bane can throw at him...he's likely more powerful than Farfalla by a good margin
Well, it would be more likely for Fisto, Saesse, and Kolar to team up against Zannah and quickly destroy her, while Mace takes Bane. The three masters would make quick work of her and then team up with Mace against Bane.
If not, they would split into two groups of two: Windu & Kolar against Bane, Fisto & Saesse against Zannah. It would definitely be a fight interesting to watch.
I don't think that Bane, unless alone, grounded and unarmed would keep Ligthning going for so long as Palpatine did, at least not enough to incapacitate him.

And Farfalla tried to put up a barrier to defend against the lightning, he wasn't using a lightsaber and obviously wasn't capable of defending against Bane's assault with his bare hands.
yeah nice strategey in thoery for the jedi team to win... but in thoery this same team should have destroyed palpatine.. mace should have been a good match on his own, and then with the other 3 it should have Sidious shuldnt have stood a chance..
fact is if bane pulls a sidious here, and kills 3 of them before Mace can hardly even react, then the sith double team Mace and the sith win. if those 3 jedis are called the b- team when going up against Sidious then i dnt see how theyll be much more competition for Bane.
They're heralded as 'great' in the novel, which also provided an appropriately badass sequence that has Palpatine dispatch Saesee and Agen before dueling Mace and Kit.
