I thought I would make this matchup since there are things in common between them. Both are leaders of a nation, have regenerative powers, and give themselves superhuman attributes by storing their energies in their bodies and releasing it. That, and I'm curious at the reactions NB would have to Fate/stay night character's abilities in general.
We all know what Tsunade can do, but I'll post my own descriptions of Saber. Mana=magical energy.
Use this video for feats for Saber and the info I posted in spoilers for her specific skills if you're not already familiar with her.

Saber's fighting style revolves around "prana bursting" This technique is transfering Mana and storing it inside of her body and weapon, and releases it in an instantly, like a jet propulsion. This makes her speed and power reach insane levels, capable of challenging Berserker. This is technically a "skill" but this is the basis of Saber's entire fighting style. The mana used is so intense, that any weapon that's not divinely enchanted would be broken from this use in 1 blow. That's how incredibly powerful Saber's strikes are. The quality of this ability seems to be connected with her mana reserves, as in the series, her capabilities depend on the ammount of her mana. This tells me that Saber's prana bursts are variable, and can vary in strength, but her reserves determine just how much she can use her mana for a prana burst.
Saber also has other uses for mana. For instance, the armor surrounding her body is made entirely from her mana. It can never be fully destroyed as she can recreate or repair it instantly. However, maintaining, forming, and repairing it can drain a lot of mana. By dismissing the armor, she can achieve a power boost.(probably because she can focus on prana bursts then) Of course, this leaves Saber with no protection since she'd be only wearing her dress. She can also use her mana to regenerate.
Instinct: A
Saber has the ability to "feel" the best course of action in a fight. It's a 6th sense close to precognition. It reduces impediments to vision and hearing by half.
Charisma:B
She can lead a nation, and armies under her command have increased capabilities during mass combat.
Noble phantams: First off, her sword is indestructible, which is why she can use prana bursts with it. Just thought I'd bring that out there.
Invisible Air:C
Saber uses multiple layers of wind mana to refract light, making her sword invisible (except to enemies that can see through visual interference as a skill) It's simple, but it prevents enemies from figuring out her sword's range, forcing them into caution and hesitation in CQB. The whirling wind around the blade can be used to increase the damage of her slashes. She can release the air as a singe-use projectile weapon. Bear in mind, When she normally releases it, it has the airs of a hurricane, imagine what she could do as a projectile released all at once, or she could use it to propel herself. This does make her sword visible though. She's also been shown to use the air as a barrier she could maintain for multiple minutes. The power of the barrier is unknown though.
Saber also has more abilities, but the only other one in play is her immortality due to Avalon(other then a severed head), and very fast regeneration.

RESRTRICTIONS:
For Tsunade: She can't use Katsuyu since this is intended to be small-scale.
For Saber: She can't use Excalibur, because she could one-shot both Tsunade and Katsuyu with it, making for a boring fight. Avalon's barrier function is also restricted, since that'd also be an instant victory due to it being invincible.
