foreseeing

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'anticipating' is the definition.
('foresee' can be a synonym of 'anticipate')

'in favour of observing' is the wordplay.
'in favour of' becomes 'fore' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'observing' becomes 'seeing' (I've seen this before).
'fore'+'seeing'='FORESEEING'

'listening and' is the link.
This may not be right. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for foreseeing that I've seen is " Predicting".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
