They better make sure it doesn't fail, otherwise it will greatly strengthen ISIS's position.
To be fair, the US is only giving a few weeks of training. Theoretically, the force is already trained.

It's supposedly a force of 25000 attacking a force of 2000. The US, I assume, will be giving air support and attacking supply lines. Even if they don't win, ISIS is going to have to devout a huge portion of their resources to this. This'll be a large blow either way.
