The 2,200 allocation is lower than some other away teams have been granted at Bloomfield Road this season.
On Saturday, Blackburn had an allocation of more than 3,000, with Barnsley taking 2,900 fans there last month.
PNE's game is regarded as 'high risk' and the allocation was the decision of Blackpool' s ground safety officer in conjunction with the police.
North End had requested a larger allocation.
