How can we compare two Matrices in power BI?

I'm seeking assistance in resolving the following query. I have monthly Sales data in Excel, and I'm comparing two different month values using Pivot tables in Excel. I've accomplished this by creating two Pivot tables and then finding the difference using a formula.

Now, I'm looking to achieve the same in Power BI. In Power BI, I've already created two matrices that display the same columns and rows, and we can select any month based on a month slicer. My question is, how can I compare or find the difference between these two matrices in Power BI?PowerBI.JPG

Matrix visuals are just that - visuals.  You probably want to compare the underlying data instead. You can use measures to compute the difference and to do the color coding too.
