In theory no matter who is above and who is below.
In practice I would suggest that 5.8 ghz antenna to be placed on top.
Of course this is also depending on their radiation in the vertical plane and each antenna gain,

When using omni antennas the clients should be in the same height like Ap with omni antenna. So, place them according that taking into account their vertical radiation angle.

80ft distance at 80ft height is 45 degree that corresponds to 90 degree of vertical antenna angle.
