^I can't think of one so I'll just give extra evidence for my statement. Satetsu can likely protect Sasori from C1+C2 and C4 won't do anything to Sasori leaving Deidara with just C3 as his only shot at winning and C0 for a tie and even then depending on how much Satetsu Sasori got out he might be able to protect himself from C3 though Deidara needs enough distance between him and Sasori in order to use C3 otherwise he would get caught in the explosion but since Sasori can fly with Sasori, Deidara might not even get a good chance to use C3. I'd favor Sasori eventually hitting Deidara and taking him out before Deidara pulls out the big guns and get a chance to nuke Sasori, assuming the nukes get past Satetsu that is.

Otherwise Sasori has better portrayal as well we we compared some of the similar things they have done. You've got Deidara's statement of which would put Sasori ahead, You got them both going up against Kazekages but Sasori beat a stronger Kazekage, Sasori managed to take down a country while the best Deidara did was get into Suna and catch Gaara but if it wasn't for Sasori and his underling then Deidara would've never gotten in so easily. Add in Sasori's ability to make Human puppets that can use jutsu be them one of the five basic elements or a KG as well as have 298 in his arsenal. Also add in his skills in making poison which can kill someone in one hit and I'd say from both feats and portrayal Sasori is the better of the two and would win in a fight more times then not.
