'expectedly' evolved from the Latin word 'expectare', and 'placed' from the Old French 'placer', eventually forming the modern English term 'expectedly-placed'.
Initially, 'expectedly' meant 'in a manner that was anticipated', and 'placed' meant 'positioned'. Together, they convey the idea of being positioned as anticipated.
