To me, this would be Tweedledum v Tweedledee. I would expect that the most interesting part of this debate would be in the refutations of the Qur'an by the Biblical expert and the refutations of the Bible by the Muslim. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the apologists of religion could turn their critical skills towards their own faith.

Or as the great Scottish poet, Robbie Burns said,
"O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us
To see oursels as others see us!
It wad frae mony a blunder free us,
An' foolish notion!
What airs in dress an' gait wad lea'e us,
And ev'n devotion!"

Translated roughly into standard English:
O would some Power the giftie [presumably the supernatural gift giver] give us
To see ourselves as others see us!
It would from many a blunder free us,
And foolish notion!
What airs in dress and gait would leave us,
And even devotion!
Examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
First Epistle to the Church of the Thessalonians
The truth will make you free.
Gospel of John
