There are two different levels of expectation here. Hillary will be expected to be presidential and to be on message and present her ideas and vision for the future. People will expect her to be good because she has a lot of experience and has basically been working towards this moment for 20 years.
All people expect of Trump is that he act like an adult. So long as he doesn't spend all of his time calling Hillary names and he comes off as being at least reasonably prepared people will give him a lot of credit and he will benefit from this.
Basically, it is Hillary's to lose. If I were her I would make my points, stay away from name calling and let Trump talk as much as possible. He has proven when he doesn't have a teleprompter he can't go three sentences without insulting someone. If I were Hillary I would be nervous. She doesn't have a whole lot to gain her, but a lot to lose and Trump is just the opposite. He has little to lose and a lot to gain.
All that said, I will be watching the Mariners play the Astros instead of this shit show. If something crazy happens during it the story will be all over the news (and GFY) so I can catch it later.
