Atticus states that he doesn't expect to win Tom's case for no other reason than it is a case of a white man's word against an African-American. Not to mention, the charge is rape. Atticus foreshadows the verdict, but he does everything he can to prove himself wrong.

Atticus followed through with the case even though he knew he probibly wasn't going to win. And he ended up not winning.
