The easiest way is to use a separat column. let's assume your lists are in
column A of both, and start in cell A2 (A1 being a header) in B2 of sheet1, enter: =countif(sheet2!A:A,A2) change your sheet name and column references as needed. any with a 0 are not in the other list. You can do boh ways to capture those one either list but not on the other.
