Well let's see here

AP: Kratos is multicontinental vs Nekros large continent

Durability: same (Negros has a "likely higher" which may mean something)

Speed equalized

Weapons: Apollo's Bow, Nemesis Whip, and Claws of Hades are all useless against Nekros (by being resistant to fire, electricity, and soul manipulation). Blades of Exile should do fine though along with the Nemean Cestus. Helios' Head will be able to counter Nekros' ability to go invisible. Boots of Hermes won't do anything due to speed being equalized. Blade of Olympus does extra damage against higher beings, but Nekros is a sort of robot so only physical damage works. Galatine Prime is a good weapon, nothing special here though. Tigris Prime is a nice shotgun that will definitely do loads of damage against Kratos, unless Kratos redirects it with his Golden Fleece. Lex Prime, well, strong pistol that's good for long range.

Most important factor here: Nekros channeling. Does it literally double his entire AP? If so then he annihilates Kratos

Channeling provides up to 50% increase in melee damage, with only three weapons (Fragor Prime, Furax Wraith, and Synoid Heliocor) surpassing that with a 1.8x increase.

So Nekros should get a 50% attack power boost from channeling if he uses it.

I think that's good enough to give him the win here
