The foreknowledge does not cause it to happen.  You say the path is known, which implies there was already a path to know.  It exists independently of the foreknowledge.

Predeterminism does not imply cause - simply the determination as in knowledge or awareness. This is why the two are comparable. 

I wasn't attempting to say that foreknowledge/predeterminism influences the outcome (if that was unclear).
