Sasuke wins with low to medium difficulty.

If Sasuke could suppress the chakra within Naruto that easily, he would have done that in their fight rather than take control and absorb the power of the other beasts so that he could obtain the power to kill Naruto.

Once again, you're blowing the meaning of "rusty" way out of proportion. Sasuke being stronger than Naruto makes no sense, simply because in their final fight, Naruto was missing half of Kurama, low on chakra from the other beasts, and low on TSBs while Sasuke, even though his Rinnegan wasn't fully developed, was still able to supercharge himself on the chakra of the other beasts that he kept in his nine chibaku tenseis and was able to obtain power on Hagoromo's level, which a weakened Naruto, forced to absorb plenty of natural energy in order to equal, was able to match.

If Naruto had both halves of Kurama, wasn't low on chakra from the other beasts, had all TSBs, and then absorbed all of that natural energy, even if Sasuke's Rinnegan was at full power and he supercharged himself on all the beast he would have been destroyed by Naruto, especially considering Naruto didn't bother to get serious until the end of the fight. Currently, Naruto no longer has TSBs, but he has both halves of Kurama (And one half of Kurama > Five Tailed Beasts) and the rest of the beasts (Infinite Tsukuyomi can only be undone by those with Rinnegan and the chakra of all the beasts, and after their fight ended Naruto and Sasuke undid it, proving he still had their chakra). His skills have also improved to a point that he can use Rasenshuriken with one hand in base, use Chakra Enhanced Strength via Kurama (that allowed him to block a moon-splitting attack with one hand and then defeat Toneri with one punch), and even project Kurama outside of his body while still being in Nine-Tails Chakra Mode and Sage Mode. He also only became Hokage a few years ago, so him becoming so much weaker in terms of skill and ability in a few years that he's weaker than Sasuke (Who's only confirmed improvements have been a stronger Chidori, able to simultaneously absorb chakra and attack, and able to traverse dimensions although it uses up massive amounts of chakra and leaves him unable to use his Rinnegan and MS' powers very well for a while. Also, if you're gonna mention that with Rinnegan he could have mastered hundreds of new jutsu wont matter, since Naruto also possess the ability to do that since Hagoromo gave him the ability to instinctively understand and grasp the nature of chakra and all things.)

Overall, especially after seeing the new Boruto trailer that looks like Naruto is using Wood Release, and after everything I just stated, there is no way Sasuke could possibly be stronger than Naruto unless he obtained some brand new power that we know nothing about. that was a rock in the trailer BTW, if Naruto was stronger than Sasuke why did he need both shadow clones and tailed beast sage mode against the Shin clones when Sasuke didn't need anywhere near as much effort against those same clones, fact is Sasuke at this point in time is more skilled than Naruto, stronger than Naruto and smarter than Naruto. if Naruto wasn't rusty they would be equal, but the fact is no matter how much some Naruto fanboys might try to deny it Sasuke in this current state is superior to Naruto it's just basic logic and common sense. and even though I'm not happy that Sasuke has surpassed Naruto it doesn't change the fact that he has. (believe me Sasuke surpassing Naruto kinda pisses me off, why because Naruto is now overshadowed by Sasuke so their teamwork is going to be damaged because their teamwork is at its best when they were equal and now Sasuke just simply is stronger than Naruto.)

oh and by the way Sasuke's susanoo is equally as powerful as Naruto's full on Kurama now that Sasuke has mastered it to the same extent as Madara, but since Sasuke's susanoo is stronger than Madara's Sasuke's perfect susanoo is easily on par with Naruto's tailed beast mode.

oh and about it making sense, since when has the series made perfect sense, the Zetsu retcon didn't make sense, Kaguya doesn't make sense. Sasuke's perfect susanoo being equal to Naruto's tailed beast mode makes far more sense that both Kaguya and the Zetsu retcon, because perfect susanoo has always been on par with Kurama, at least Madara's and Sasuke's were.
