Skill does not always trump ferocity. Viking attacks were rapid, changing, and as mentioned before, chaotic. The warriors had their own agendas, and a pack mentality. Spartan battlefield tactics relied on one unified goal and use of formation. In a pitched, even battle on a level field, there would be massive, massive casualties. My vote is 50/50.
Or so I say from my chair at work.
Now, if the Spartans had Master Chief with them, that would be an asskicking.
