They are less likely to have a problem than my birds as both of yours are close to the same size. Also there is less likely to be a problem if there is adequate space for them to perch separately from each other. Just go slow with the introductions and don't leave them alone together when out of their cages until you are sure that neither will fly to attack the other.
My Grey will attack any bird that gets close enough to her space. I have to supervise all out of cage time as I also have dogs and cats. There are always at least two cats in the house and while they pretty much leave the larger birds alone, I don't trust them and they are very interested in the budgies and parrotlet, so no bird is out unless I am present the entire time. You worry about what your two on nearly the same size might do to each other, and rightly so, but imagine the difference between a parrotlet at 1 ounce in weight and an Amazon that weighs about a pound. With mine out the current way is that Mimi the Amazon is at her cage, Kookooloo, the Grey is on her cage or on the back of the sofa, Kiki, the Senegal is usually on me as is Skeeter the parrotlet. With this procedure I have had zero fights between any of my birds.
Once introduction are over your birds are much more likely to bond with each other than to just tolerate each other. I put this in the manner that I did to illustrate that even if they are not the best of friends it is possible to have them both out at the same time in the same room.
