A healthy Itachi would be able to maintain a Susanoo. He can use the Yata Mirror to block Jiraiya's elemental attacks and one hit with the Totsuka Blade is game over. Other than that, I think Jiraiya is more skilled overall. Especially Sage Jiraiya. Itachi could also use the Tsukuyomi but he needs to be close for that and I don't think Jiraiya would give him the time or space.
