Good debating on both sides.
First off, Akuma's Raging Demon is a problem for Zeus. He has no defense against it, and even though he atoned for his sin in the end, I don't think that would be enough. That being said, I don't think the RD would be much of a factor in this fight.
Speed - Zeus is faster than Akuma, shown in his teleportation and scaling above Hermes. Akuma's combat speed is impressive, and his ability to create afterimages / intangibility using his Ashura Senkuu would allow him to keep up with Zeus, but Zeus should be top dog here. Note: Akuma dodging Kazuya's laser in T7 was him aim-dodging (you can see the laser being dragged across the ground and Akuma jumping out of the way).
Power- Akuma clearly takes the upper levels of Power in his attacks, but I feel like that is just with his one attack, the Kongou Kokuretsuzan. That being said, that attack I feel wouldn't hit Zeus with his teleportation, and Zeus in CQC with his lightning cloak, speed, and ability to spam lighting attacks from the sky I feel would give Zeus the win here.
Fighting Skill - In martial skill Akuma wins hands down. If Zeus throws hands with Akuma with no hax abilities, he'd loose.
Durability - Zeus should have this in spades. Akuma can survive the bottom of the ocean, but so can Poseidon, and thus so should Zeus, as did the Titans and Giants. There was an argument made that says that the Giants don't have impressive stats, and I'd have to disagree. The Gods (Zeus) are comparable to the Titans, and the Giants, spawn of the Titans, fought the Gods to a stand still, meaning they are all relative in terms of power...which is mountain / island level, if not beyond that. The Giants weren't just trying to destroy the Gods, they were trying to destroy the REALM of the Gods.

I don't think I need to go on any further. I think Zeus should take this in a good fight, with Akuma showing him he's not your average human fighter and pushing Zeus to actually take him seriously.
