I tend to look at the nature of them both for a conclusion. My opinions are based on movies, Dungeons & Dragons manuals, RPG's that actually deal with being a Vampire or Werewolf and multiple books. It all boils down to the nature of the beast.

Vampires simply become predatorial. They take on a more sinister and sometimes a "feral" look when they let their fangs out. Their fingernails grow long and sharp, acting like claws. Vampire strength, although enhanced is usually only about 10 times that of an average Male human. Impressive, but nonetheless not as strong as most think. Their enhanced speed is also something that gets faster in time. The base speed though is usually roughly equivalent to twice that of an average human. Fast? Sure, but not as fast as people tend to think. A vampires speed, strength and senses are generally better than a humans, but their abilities are still sort of limited in that Vampires are still human and therefore a human in its most primal and bestial state is rarely more than a raving lunatic. Stronger and faster sure but still limited to human physiology with the higher strength loads being attributed to their undead state and supernatural abilities.

Vampires gain powers with age...the ability to shapeshift into 3 types of forms (Mist, Bat, Wolf) is usually reserved for the eldest, although each shape is attained one by one as time goes by and they learn new abilities. Lastly, the ability to fly/glide is usually only attained AFTER they have achieved the shape abilities of Mist and Bat. Then they can do so while still in human form. Vampires can also spider-climb. That is that they can walk up most surfaces like a spider can. Overall, neophytes are generally ten times stronger, twice as fast and their senses more akin to a wolf than an average human. Neophytes usually gain more power between 250-400 years of age (as a vampire).

Werewolves on the other hand are completely immersed into primal raging beasts. They gain the instincts, strengths and other abilities of their kind of animal. If you took a wolf's strength while it is enraged and enhanced it pound for pound then you have their Strength while human and half-form. In full Alpah mode/form? This is enhanced further by factors generally seen between 5x - 10x. There is a huge difference in strenght when you compare a controlled test of strength and an enraged test of strength. Werewolves and other "beasts" or lycanthropes are always using the most enraged primal attributes of their forms. Even when they learn to control their "rage" and primal thirsts for killing they still retain the higher scale of strength compared to the average, at rest individual.

The overall bottom line IMO is that Vampires are humans that are reverted to their most primal and enraged state. Werewolves are the hybrid of the animal and human that is at its most aggressive state. Werewolves are kind of like the Hulk or Wolverine. Always enraged and at the height of their power at all times. Vampires on the other hand need to focus on bringing out more of their abilities. Or you could say that a Werewolf doesn't think twice about moving an object it wherein a Vampire has to "brace" itself and sort of focus before being able to do the same thing.

One on one? Werewolves will beat the Vampire UNLESS the Vampire uses their brain and traps the werewolf first. That is the Vampire's advantage. The ability to assess and use reasoning with an enemy instead of charging full on.
