Are the members of Team Voldemort (which should really probably be name for either of the other two) both the movie and book versions? If so, I can't help but think that anyone who thinks Team Charmed will stomp, or even win, hasn't read the HP books. Dumbledore with morals off is not something I'd like to see.
The wizards haven't shown specifically that they are likely to be immune to molecular immobilization or combustion, but it is possible; the rules for whom Piper's powers affect are rather unclear throughout the series. Even if they were definitely vulnerable, they could potentially avoid her. Many times throughout the series, a baddie has somehow dodged or was able to avoid being frozen or blown up. Piper is just not able to always use her instantaneous power instantaneously. Paige's powers also take time. The time it would take her to say "Wands!" or "Crystals!" any of the wizards would have done any number of spells on them. And Phoebe's power of premonition is severely limited; she's not able to constantly see the future to predict what might happen. All of the wizards, especially Voldemort and Dumbledore, are impossibly fast with their dueling abilities and able to do just as much damage close as far away from the sisters. Most of what the sisters can do requires them to be near their opponent, or at least see them.
Also, since the battle is at Hogwarts, we can assume that the wizards are unable to apparate. However, this probably means that Paige is unable to use her orbing powers since they seem to work the same way. This would render Paige completely ineffective, in my estimation. Her martial arts skills, any potions she may have concocted and any spells she might take the time to utter would be done away with a quick "Langlock" and "Avada Kedavra", only two examples of a million different spells, both voiced and unvoiced, that the wizards could perform.
The hour of prep I feel would heavily favor the wizards as well. The sisters would probably spend much of their hour writing spells and making potions, with some time spent on learning about the wizards. However, what they could learn about the wizards wouldn't help them as much as what the wizards could learn about them. The wizards would probably spend most of the time learning about the sisters, in which they could learn everything about all their powers and how they work, and the rest of the time learning some ridiculous Dark Magic from Voldemort that we've never even heard about.
Lastly, *SPOILERS* (ha, just in case) Voldemort is basically invincible! Unless we're assuming that this battle takes place after Harry has destroyed all the Horcruxes, even if the sisters managed to kill Harry and Dumbledore, Voldemort's soul is protected so well, he could hang on long enough, despite their constant efforts, to finish the sisters off.
So, wizards FTW.
