Sasuke killed Orochimaru while he was sick in bed. It's not a fair comparison to his "prime" form.

Naruto would be a big ringer. He has full control of Kurama now. 4 Tails is too much for Jiraiya to contain comfortably, so we know that against the full 9 tails he'd be struggling hard, even with intent to kill.

Orochimaru is probably just below EMS Sasuke in terms of abilities. Didn't he say he wasn't strong enough to take Sasuke when Sasuke revived him? So yeah. He'd probably push Sasuke pretty hard, but he wouldn't win.

Tsunade vs Sakura, Tsunade wins. Their abilities are more or less the same, with Tsunade being the better medic and probably stronger overall. On top of this, she has much more experience than Sakura. Tsunade wins.

In terms of one on one battle prowess, I think Team 7 wins (Naruto and Sasuke would win their fights). But this is a team vs a team. And the Sannin have worked together since childhood to adulthood. Team 7 stopped working together before Part 1 ended. The Sannin's experience and teamwork would be a pretty good match for Team 7's raw abilities. So... I think the Sannin have a pretty good shot at winning. I'd still put the odds at like 50/50
