Sasuke will probably avoid close-range combat, considering he doesn't have his sword anymore. Although, he could probably use his Chidori Sharp Spear as a melee weapon. We've only seen him stab people with it, but he could probably use it as a sword. His ultimate defense right now would be his Susanoo and if Naruto can bypass it somehow, Sasuke would be done for.
