The hosts showed good chemistry from the off, passing the ball around seamlessly before Wayne Rooney collected a loose ball inside the opposition box and rifled just wide.
Nine minutes in Marcos Rojo pounced on a rebound but CSKA goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev was able to palm the ball out for a corner, which Jesse Lingard blasted into the stands following Rooney's delivery.
Juan Mata was next to try his luck on the quarter-hour mark when he received a precise lofted cross inside the box and fired a low effort down the centre, which Akinfeev was able to stop comfortably.
Man Utd continued to push forward and threatened through another overhit shot from Lingard and Rojo's connection from Ashley Young's cross, which flew just wide of the left post.
Nevertheless, Louis van Gaal's charges could not break their five-hour goal drought come the half-time whistle.
