This was PSG 2nd loss of the season and a surprising one given their strong win vs Real Madrid in the UCL in mid-week.
However, PSG remain firmly at the tip with 59 points; having a 13-point lead over 2nd place Marseille.
On the other hand, Saint Etienne drew 2-2 at home to Strasbourg last Sunday which pushed them away from the relegation zone.
Boudebouz and Khazri scored for the hosts while Diallo and Perrin found the net for Strasbourg.
This point ensured a three-match unbeaten run continues with 22 points from 25 matches played.
Both sides last met in November, where PSG won 3-1 away through goals from Marquinhos (2) and Di Maria.
