-No Semblance.

-No Aura unlocked or at the very least doesn't dominate it's use as much as Weiss does.

-Lesser combat skills, if she even has any.

Overall, in an all-out, no-holds-barred fight, it would be very decisive in favor of Weiss. It couldn't even be called a fight.

However, this also makes her a better successor than Weiss, assuming Papa Schnee goes full-retard and only chooses 1, since by not wasting her time playing Hunters and Grimm like Weiss is doing, she can waste her time learning more business-related things such as how to manage a company.

Weiss may have all the powers she could ever have through Hunter training, but all of those will be useless when it comes to managing the company. Since she will spend 4 whole years of her life on it, that means Winter can potentially be 4 years more experienced than her at the least. We don't know that Weiss went to a combat school previously and she already could use her Semblance. They may get private combat training just to insure they are capable of winning a fight. Unless Weiss specifically asked for combat training we can presume Winter has also received it and has presumably been developing it for many more years. Of course, for all we know Weiss is a prodigy when it comes to combat as compared with her sister.
