Minato, Itachi's genjustu is no joke for sure, but Itachi would need line of sight to use it, which Minato has shown time and time again to be able to keep behind an enemy or in their blind spot. Minato defeated Obito and Obito's defensive capabilities are arguably much, much better than Itachi's, the Susano'o would probably be countered once Itachi is marked, which won't be much of a problem when Minato marked Obito (who has kamui). Minato also has great offensive capabilities that include knocking the enemy away while not necessarily looking at the enemy (Celestial Air Slice Type Zero, Jiku Shippu Senko Rennodan Zeroshiki, Flying Raijin: Second Step). There is also the fact that Minato probably knows how to counter a genjustu, he could very well keep a shadow clone around to help knock himself out of the genjustu. Minato has almost every advantage here, the only advantage Itachi seems to have is the Sharingan for some situations, and Susano'o if Minato is somehow unable to mark him.
