Hertha BSC began their 2. Bundesliga season by returning to the Olympiastadion for their home opener against 1. FC Heidenheim. Ahead of the match, coach Stefan Leitl noted that scheduling difficulties had prevented the team from holding training sessions at the stadium, requiring players to inspect the pitch and locker rooms in sneakers.

Following the opener, Hertha BSC secured a 4-1 victory in their second match of the season against Heidenheim, maintaining a perfect start with six points. The club established an early lead with goals from Sebastian Grönning, Marten Winkler, and Deyovaisio Zeefuik, resulting in a 3-0 halftime score. Although Jan Schöppner scored for Heidenheim in the 49th minute, Oluwaseun Adewumi finalized the win in stoppage time, assisted by Josip Brekalo following a 90-meter sprint. Despite a late red card for Zeefuik, Hertha BSC remains undefeated through their first two matches.
