Bought this at a coral event. Pretty sure I asked the guy and it’s a green stylophora but just want to make sure.

From the picture posted I agree with green stylophora. Beautiful coral. It does have a digitata look to it, almost looks like orange skin under the polyps but let it grow a bit to determine.
 
In this stage, I agree that it looks more like montipora digitata typical “finger” shape vs the Stylopora’s “cat paw” shape.

I don’t know if the shape is what determines the species or if you can have a monti that looks like a stylo and vice versa.
