Why does Sir Accolon expect to win the fight with King Arthur?

Because Accolon had the real Excalibur and even more importantly--the scabbard. Arthur had fakes and he did not realize it until the fight began and Accolon kept wounding the king and Arthur kept losing blood. Accolon felt there was no way he could lose with the magical protection of Excalibur and the scabbard. But Arthur was too good a fighter to begin with.

Was Excalibur ever stolen from King Arthur?
Yes, in one of the legends Morgan Le Fay stole Excalibur when she captured Arthur and another knight named Accolon, who she was in love with. She forced Arthur and Accolon to fight each other without knowing their opponents identities. Morgan gave Accolon Excalibur and Arthur a regular sword. Accolon broke the sword, but the Lady of the Lake intervened, Arthur snatched up Excalibur, and struck Accolon a mortal blow on the head. It was only after that that Arthur removed his helmet and recognized his friend (not exactly the most rational group of knights in the world). After that, Morgan stole the magic scabbard to Excalibur, but Arthur never recovered that.
