It doesn't have enough content for 50 episodes, unless they REALLY try to flesh things out, but the source material only has a bit over a hundred chapters, and around 100 chapters usually equals 25 episodes of anime, as four chapters are usually episode length, for example, both seasons of Magi took up around 100 chapters each, and the first season of JoJo's was adapted from 113 chapters exactly.
It is possible to get more for each chapter depending on the content, like how Stardust crusaders was adapted from 152 chapters, but that's because counting the chapters isn't always accurate.

The other method that's more accurate is counting the number of volumes and multiplying them by three, because one volume of manga usually contains three episodes and a novel is usually six episodes if you don't skip over content. Someone in the comments said that the manga was currently 13+ manga volumes and a novel. 13 times 3 is 39 plus 6 is 45, which is close to 50, they would run out of content if they adapted all of it right off the bat. if they go for a 2-cour series than they'll likely be open for a possible sequel.

I'm against the idea of the series being long-running, because long-running shounen are kind of a thing of the past, there are only a few left, like Boruto, One Piece and Case Closed. I like 2-cour series because they're more fleshed out, but don't overstay their welcome.

It's noteworthy that my opinion isn't fact, I just like to explain myself a lot like a light-novel protagonist sometimes.
