I was able to come up with a solution using an if...then in the expression.
=If(A1>80 and A2>80, 1, If(A1<80 and A2<80, -1, 0))
Then you need to set the guage to Min -2, Max 2. And set up three regions for your colors (I just had to add one and change the default colors). You could make some adjustments depending on what exactly you're looking for.

I used the following expression that makes the value to show in the gauge 0 for both below, 1 for opposed results, 2 for both up. The lower limit for the areas will be 0,1,2 to make it stay in the middle I added 0,5
= if(a1>80,1,0)+if(a2>80,1,0)+0.5

Well, for one thing, I'd use a traffic light intead of a gauge. Your gauge isn't showing any specific value. It's just showing three possibilities. Or you could combine two gauges with a trafic light. Or two values with a traffic light. Or two values with a background color or text color. Or...
That said, if you really want the gauge like that, and can settle for the needle pointing to the middle of each range, you could do this:
if(X1<70 and X2<70,35,if(X1>=70 and X1<=90 and X2>=70 and X2<=90,80,95))

Hmmm, it didn't show the number when I put that expression in your chart in either 8.5 or 9.0. There's a pop up for the number, which you could remove by unchecking pop up labels on the presentation tab. And the option might be there somewhere, but I'm not even seeing how I could get the value on the gauge if I wanted it there. Sorry!
