If you dissect the fight a bit, the outcome is not that clear.

Death Knights' level is known to be 35. Davernoch's level is not stated, but we can estimate him to be at least level 30, like Succulent. Other members of the Six Arms see Succulent as being weak, though, so Davernoch's level may be even higher than that. We can assume that the DK has a certain level advantage, but it should not be massive enough for him to just effortlessly tear Davernoch apart.

Davernoch's big edge is his Fireball spell. Given that his main magical item is an orb for amplifying Fireball and Lightning, it can be assumed he is a destruction mage specialized in casting these two spells. Fire magic is one of the big weaknesses of the undead, so he should be able to deal respectable damage to a Death Knight just by spamming Fireball.

Additionally, Death Knights have a mediocre attack power and attack with a sword. Ainz has a significant resistance to slashing and stabbing damage, though it is not certain that a lower-level, non-skeleton lich would have the same resistances. Davernoch also has a Ring of Deflection which seems like a defensive item.

Overall, this fight is fairly difficult to call assuming that Davernoch is level 30. If he's anywhere over 33-ish, I think Davernoch takes the win.
