However, in the early 2000s, it was a regular occurrence for the Reds to visit the Welsh capital.
In fact, for seven seasons, the Principality Stadium - know then as the Millennium Stadium - acted as a temporary host to England’s domestic cup finals while Wembley was being rebuilt.
As a result, between 2001 and 2006, United played at the 74,000-seater arena on eight occasions.
The first of those came in the 2001 Community Shield, when the Reds suffered defeat at the hands of arch-rivals Liverpool, going down 2-1 to the Merseysiders.
Two years later, United again competed in the annual season curtain-raiser in Cardiff, when we faced Arsenal - the team we’ve locked horns with the most times at the ground (three).
