As a master of FTG, Minato doesn't ever have just one spot marked i.e. he tends to mark many different spots as quickly as possible, even as a priority over attacking his opponents. As he continues to place markers, he gradually progresses into the attack.

Along with such a battle plan as marking the field, I can't see him throwing a kunai directly at Itachi, as that would increase Itachi's accuracy of expectation for FTG travel, not to mention the sharingan gives Itachi clearer perception of what's right in front of him.

If Minato could react to teleport quickly enough from a Raikage, it's possible he could with Amaterasu. Although I'm not sure which is quicker to hit a target (Raikage or Amaterasu)--just giving a feat of reaction time. If Amaterasu is faster, Minato will surely be burned to death (or in this Edo case he will be incapacitated).

I'm also positive Itachi would switch to MS immediately and attempt Amaterasu or Tsukuyomi, possibly one after another in repetition until he gets a hit. All the while, Minato is yellow flashing about, throwing kunai and dodging as much as he can. I guess, Itachi has an absolute advantage from this. If they don't stop to talk about each other, Minato wouldn't know Itachi is Uchiha until seeing the sharingan. By that point, it would already too late to avoid either Amaterasu or Tsukuyomi. If Amaterasu...Itachi wins, if Tsukuyomi...Minato dispels unharmed and the battle goes on.
