Saint-Etienne extended their unbeaten run to 13 games with a goalless draw at Ajaccio this evening.
Les Verts, who climb above Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain into second place in the Ligue 1 table, will feel disappointed that they were unable to win the match.
Christophe Galtier's men dominated the game in terms of possession, however they were only able to test goalkeeper Guillermo Ochoa on two occasions.
Ajaccio almost stole an unlikely victory in the dying seconds when Johan Cavalli fired wide from 14 yards.
