Okay, before we check compression, tell me if the spark plugs from those two cylinders are wet after running the engine. Also, you are correct about the spark. It should be a blue snapping spark.

If they are dry, that tells me that they aren't getting fuel. If there isn't a spark that can cause combustion, the fuel should build up in the cylinder and get the plug wet with gas. Are you sure the fuel pressure is within spec and that all injectors are getting power and actually working?
