En una de las sentencias más esperadas de los últimos años

I have never understood this use of esperar as for "to hope" and "to expect". This sentence is part of a newspaper article on the sentence passed on the husband of Cristina de Borbón.

If it means "a judgment eagerly awaited", why can't it mean "an expected judgment"? (because the idiot was clearly guilty)
