The fight can go eitehr way honestly. Naruto isn't the type of person who would stand right there and take the hits. Infact, Naruto already knows how Itachi's Susanno works, so it's obvoius that he would avoid the blade at all times. Naruto has also shown to be able to outsmart enemies smarter than him. Sometime it doesn't work. Naruto also does have Shadow clones, and Itachi can't tell the difference between the original (No the Sharingan doesn't help, it was proven. Same goes for sensory, but it can detect two chakra). So Naruto have countless way to counter these attack without getting hit. As for Itachi's most powerful Genjutsu, it is still a Genjutsu, there is a good chance Kurama can still break him out. We also got Amaterasu, which if it, Naruto can use some chakra cloak from Kurama to remove it, as seen against Sasuke. So Naruto has a ton of way to avoid and counter Itachi, which gives out Hokage a win,

But, Itachi can still win if Naruto ever messes up and gets stabbed by Itachi sword, or if the Tsukomyi can't be broken by Kurama also. Over all as said, the battle can go either way. Even if Naruto is limited in abilities.

It should be noted that in blood lust or not, Naruto Knows how dangerous a Sharingan or even a MS is, and would instantly try to end the battle before Itachi can do anything.
