Neutral pion (left) and $\eta$ meson (right) spectra in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV and p-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_\mathrm{NN}}=8.16$ TeV together with NLO calculations, Pythia8 and two-component model fits. Lower panels present the ratio of the spectra to their TCM fits together with the theory predictions. Lower right panel presents the $\eta/\pi^0$ ratio for both systems.
