Sexing Angels is very very difficult, the best way to know is just see if they pair up and spawn. That's they only 100% way to tell gender that I'm aware of.
If they are fighting a lot, chances are its 2 males.

There is no way anymore to accurately sex Angelfish 100% without seeing their breeding tubes. That shouldn't be happening until the fish are about 8 months old +/- when they become sexually mature.
That said, the fish appear to be on the smaller side so there is no way to make a guess and be better than 50% right. If I were you, I'd wait until you have had the fish at least 5 months ( assuming you bought them as smalls) then try to take a close up picture of the fish. ( It might be me but I can't get a good larger of your pic to view.) There are some tricks that apply "most of the time" but again, 100% accuracy only comes from seeing their tubes.
Hope this helps.
