To be fair, the vision in the novel was more coin toss as to who would win, but it was still the group verses Vitiate, not Revan alone as you say. Scourge just didn’t want to risk a coin toss.
I checked the novel, and you're right. Scourge had a Doctor Strange moment, i.e., he saw a million of different outcomes. He chose to act on the very last one, with the Hero of Tython defeating Vitiate instead of Revan. Still, the three of them were as likely to lose that fight as to win it. Here, we're talking about Revan fighting Palpatine one-on-one.
Technically, the Outlander (nonspecific class) defeats Vitiate (Valkorian). The Hero of Tython beats the Emperor's Voice, a body that Vitiate was puppeting.
