Viking travel with their attacking group intact, led by Tripi\u0107, who has scored 2 goals and created 6 chances in 169 minutes so far, with S\u00e9ne Moi and Christiansen also among the goals for the visitors this season.<\/p>\n<p>Markets have Stuttgart as clear favourites for this league-phase clash, but Viking have already shown in Croatia that they can be got at defensively even while finding the net themselves, and that combination points to an open contest with goals at both ends rather than a comfortable shutout. A weakened home defence against a Viking side that keeps scoring even away from home tilts this toward entertainment over control.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n.sq-bpg{--lime:#a8e039;--glow:#c8f24c;--tx:#f4f8f1;--mut:rgba(244,248,241,.62);--line:rgba(255,255,255,.10);--gold:#F7B500;--b365:#ffdd00;position:relative;overflow:hidden;isolation:isolate;font-family:'Bricolage Grotesque',system-ui,-apple-system,Segoe UI,Roboto,sans-serif;color:var(--tx);max-width:960px;margin:12px auto 30px;border-radius:18px;background:radial-gradient(70% 90% at 18% 0%,rgba(168,224,57,.20) 0%,rgba(168,224,57,0) 60%),linear-gradient(135deg,#0e3f29 0%,#0a2c1f 60%,#08251a 100%);box-shadow:0 18px 44px rgba(10,44,31,.32)}\n.sq-bpg *{box-sizing:border-box}\n.sq-bpg::before{content:'';position:absolute;inset:0;z-index:0;pointer-events:none;background-image:url(\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20preserveAspectRatio%3D%22xMidYMid%20slice%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%203000%203000%22%3E%3Cdefs%3E%3Cpattern%20id%3D%22a%22%20width%3D%2278%22%20height%3D%22175.5%22%20x%3D%220%22%20y%3D%220%22%20patternTransform%3D%22rotate%28-45%29%22%20patternUnits%3D%22userSpaceOnUse%22%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22m-38.22%20157.05-.78-78%2078-.78c.45%2043.12-34.12%2078.33-77.22%2078.78%22%2F%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22M77.22%200%2078%2081.6l-78%20.78C-.45%2035.67%2034.12.45%2077.22%200%22%2F%3E%3Cpath%20fill%3D%22%2303261a%22%20d%3D%22m37.78%20158.05-.78-78%2078-.78c.45%2043.12-34.12%2078.33-77.22%2078.78%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fpattern%3E%3C%2Fdefs%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%22100%25%22%20height%3D%22100%25%22%20fill%3D%22url%28%23a%29%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\");background-position:top left;background-size:380px 380px;opacity:.4}\n.sq-bpg__r{position:absolute;width:0;height:0;opacity:0;pointer-events:none}\n.sq-bpg__wrap{position:relative;z-index:1;padding:26px 30px 24px}\n.sq-bpg__tag{display:inline-flex;align-items:center;gap:9px;border:1.5px solid rgba(168,224,57,.55);border-radius:999px;padding:7px 16px;color:var(--lime);font-weight:800;font-size:12px;letter-spacing:2.4px;text-transform:uppercase;background:rgba(10,44,31,.4)}\n.sq-bpg__tag::before{content:'';width:8px;height:8px;border-radius:50%;background:var(--lime);box-shadow:0 0 10px 1px var(--glow)}\n.sq-bpg__ttl{font-size:26px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:-.3px;line-height:1.12;margin:0;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__sub{margin:8px 0 0;font-size:14.5px;line-height:1.5;color:var(--mut);max-width:70ch}\n.sq-bpg__perf{display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;align-items:center;gap:9px;margin-top:18px;padding-top:16px;border-top:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__perf-h{font-size:11px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:1.4px;text-transform:uppercase;color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__chip{font-size:12.5px;color:var(--mut);background:rgba(255,255,255,.05);border:1px solid var(--line);border-radius:999px;padding:4px 11px}\n.sq-bpg__chip b{color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__chip--big{background:var(--lime);color:#08251a;border-color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__chip--big b{color:#08251a}\n.sq-bpg__siglink{margin-left:auto;font-size:13px;font-weight:700;color:var(--lime);text-decoration:none;border-bottom:2px solid rgba(168,224,57,.35)}\n.sq-bpg__geoq{margin-top:18px;font-size:13px;font-weight:700;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__toggle{display:flex;gap:6px;margin-top:9px}\n.sq-bpg__tab{flex:1;text-align:center;cursor:pointer;user-select:none;font-size:14.5px;font-weight:800;line-height:1.2;padding:10px;border-radius:11px;border:1px solid var(--line);background:rgba(255,255,255,.04);color:var(--mut);transition:.15s}\n.sq-bpg__tab span{display:block;font-size:11px;font-weight:600;margin-top:3px;opacity:.8}\n.sq-bpg__r--us:checked ~ .sq-bpg__toggle .sq-bpg__tab--us,\n.sq-bpg__r--row:checked ~ .sq-bpg__toggle .sq-bpg__tab--row{background:var(--lime);color:#08251a;border-color:var(--lime)}\n.sq-bpg__list{margin-top:16px;border-top:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__row{display:grid;grid-template-columns:1fr 122px;gap:14px;align-items:center;padding:15px 2px;border-bottom:1px solid var(--line)}\n.sq-bpg__pk{font-size:16px;font-weight:800;line-height:1.25;color:var(--tx)}\n.sq-bpg__top{display:inline-block;vertical-align:middle;margin-left:8px;font-size:10px;font-weight:800;letter-spacing:.8px;text-transform:uppercase;color:#5b3b00;background:linear-gradient(90deg,#ffe07a,var(--gold));padding:3px 8px;border-radius:6px}\n.sq-bpg__why{display:block;margin-top:5px;font-size:13.5px;line-height:1.5;color:var(--mut)}\n.sq-bpg__pr{text-align:center}\n.sq-bpg__prob{display:block;font-size:26px;font-weight:800;color:var(--lime);line-height:1}\n\/* pre-odds confidence stars (shown at launch before prices post;
