The answer

In this case, the duty is to perform the obligatory prayer first, and then the Eid prayer, because, according to the majority of scholars, making up a missed prayer is immediately obligatory. However, if one has not made up the missed prayer by the time of the Eid congregational prayer, the Hanbalis stipulate that the Eid prayer should be given precedence until one leaves the Eid prayer ground. Then, the missed prayer or prayers should be made up, so that one is not emulated. Voluntary prayers do not substitute for obligatory prayers under any circumstances, just as the Fajr prayer does not suffice for the Eid prayer.
