Recent signing Emil Riis was among the substitutes, so too Tom Barkhuizen - available again after serving a one-match suspension.
Cardiff's side featured former PNE left-back Greg Cunningham, the first time the Irishman has faced North End since leaving in a £4m deal in June 2018.
Harry Wilson, who arrived on loan from Liverpool on deadline day, was named on the Bluebirds' bench.
