I have MOSS 2007 SP2 on SQL Express. I'm planning to migrate the content to SharePoint 2013 Enterprise with SQL Server 2014.

I know I need to do a migration to SharePoint 2010 first.

Are there any special steps (other than the regular migration steps) that I need to consider given the difference in SQL versions?

Given that you're aware of the necessity of the SharePoint 2010 intermediary farm, there are no "extra" steps involved specifically related to a migration from an Express edition to a Server edition of SQL.

However, be aware that SharePoint 2010 does not support SQL Server 2014, so you will need to setup a SQL Server version which supports SharePoint 2010 for the intermediary migration farm. This would be one of the following:

SQL Server 2008 SP1 w/ CU2 SQL Server 2008 R2 SQL Server 2012 (with SharePoint 2010 SP1+)

SharePoint 2010 Software Requirements: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485(office.14).aspx#section4

SharePoint 2007 SQL Express to SQL Server Migration: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262018(office.12).aspx

Hope this helps!
