Djibril Cisse looked to test the visitors' goal early on as he let fly with a wild right-footed shot from the right side of the box, having been found by Yannick Cahuzac's through-ball.
Saint-Etienne took the lead with the game's first clear-cut chance, as Brandao tucked home with his right from six yards out following Yohan Mollo's cross into the box.
Jeremy Clement almost doubled the visitors' advantage after half time with a left-footed shot, but it was clawed out from the top corner by Jean-Louis Leca.
Fethi Harek thought that he had pulled the hosts level when he sent in a long-range effort, but it was palmed away from goal.
Harek was further disappointed in the final minutes of the game, as he turned the ball into his own net to ensure that Saint-Etienne took all three points.
