Despite the injury setbacks, Warnock has been delighted by the attitude of his players in training as they prepare for two tough fixtures in four days.
Cardiff are at home to Chelsea on Sunday and travel to Manchester City on Wednesday, with both games live on Sky Sports Premier League.
"We've got to try and stay in with these two difficult games and hope that other teams help us as well," he said.
"We don't want to be too far adrift for the last six games. It's not just Burnley and Southampton, I think there another one or two nervous teams above because you can lose four or five games at this level.
"I don't feel like we're under pressure because everybody knows we should be down there."
