How did Union General Joseph Hooker plan to win the Battle of Chancellorsville?

Union General Joseph Hooker had enough troops to win the Battle of Chancellorsville in 1863. His basic plan was to strike at Confederate General Lee's rear while he was still in position near Fredericksburg. Hooker envisioned a formal set piece battle with reversed fronts. Hooker underestimated Lee's brilliant tactics and suffered a defeat. Clearly this was part of the reason he was replaced as the commander of the Army of the Potomac.
