Orlando Pirates assistant coach Sergio Almenara says they will have a full go at Sekhukhune United when the two meet in the DStv Premiership on Tuesday.
It's been nothing, but a disappointing past three matches for Pirates, who exited the Carling Knockout on Saturday against Richards Bay FC before two draws with AmaZulu and Polokwane were followed by a shock defeat against bottom-placed Cape Town Spurs.

Pirates have endured a backlog of fixtures early, in this season following their involvement in the CAF Champions League and have had no rest in the last two weeks after playing twice a week, with the Soweto derby against Kaizer Chiefs this weekend.
"Well again, short preparation between games, but we're doing the homework in order to get the team ready," Almenara told Pirates media.
As Sekhukhune parted ways with coach Brandon Truter and reappointed McDonald Makhubedu for the time being, Pirates still expect a buoyant outfit to pitch up in Soweto.
"They just changed the coach, so expectations are very wide open, so we will probably expect some patterns they developed in the last games, but we also expect some changes.
"Our approach is going with everything, going full and trying to perform as best as possible from the very beginning," Almenara said.
Pirates are in an unfamiliar 13th position on the table, with just two wins, three draws, and three losses, and sit on nine points and have two games in hand after playing a few catch-up matches lately.
