migrating to a new iphone but earlier model

I plan to migrate from my current iphone SE (first model) with iOS 13.4.1 to an iphone 7plus which has an earlier iOS. Should I upgrade the iOS on the 7plus before the migration? Or should I just go ahead with the transfer of data? Wonder if anyone has been in this situation and can help...

Before transfering data.

You cannot restore / transfer data from an iPhone that has iOS version more recent than the destination one.
