The Blues can equal a record that has stood for 131 years with a win over Liverpool on Saturday, after winning the last 23 home games in all competitions.
Sunderland set the bar with 24 wins between 1890 and 1892 and Bernardo believes the City fans can help the Blues create yet more history.
“It is always better to play at home with your fans,” said Bernardo.
“We have that feeling at home at the Etihad and we felt it last season in the Premier League and the Champions League.
“The energy that the crowd creates at the Etihad is unbelievable and again against Liverpool we are going to try and create that special atmosphere to push us again, knowing we are playing against a very tough opponent.”
Bernardo says Liverpool’s bright start to this campaign is no surprise and that he had no doubt they would be challenging for the title again after last season’s below par finish.
“We were expecting them to come back, definitely,” said the Portuguese.
“It is a team that know exactly the way the manager wants to play, and they have a manager that has been there for a long time, so everyone thinks in the same direction and when that happens, most of the things go well.
“It is going to be a very tough opponent to beat this season, but we are playing well at the moment.
“In my opinion, against Chelsea we didn’t play as well as we wanted to. But apart from that game I think the team is doing very well.
“I like the way the team is playing at the moment a lot and hopefully we can keep going.
“We know that no one has ever won four Premier League titles in a row, and we are fighting for the fourth, knowing that the teams we are playing against this season have improved a lot from last season.
“Liverpool is back, Tottenham has started the season really well and Arsenal again.
“It is going to be a very tough job, but we definitely want to create history and win four in a row.
“We are a team that has won five Premier Leagues in six years, and we want to keep winning, with the goal of creating a legacy of people in 10 to 20 years looking back and looking at us and thinking that this was one of the best teams in the history of English football and maybe the best.
“That idea of people looking back at us and knowing that we created a bit of history in this game is a nice view.
“We had a conversation at the beginning of the season because we wanted to try and start the season well, because last season we put ourselves in a difficult situation where we were seven or eight points behind Arsenal, and it is not a nice feeling because you have to go after them.
“We needed to start the season well, put ourselves in a good position to win the league and not go after Arsenal, Liverpool, or Tottenham.
“We are trying to work on that and win as many as games as possible.”
