systemd-timesyncd is only a (S)NTP client, it doesn't provider the
server part. If you use NTP as a (local) NTP server, systemd-timesyncd
can not replace. If you use NTP as a client only, you can uninstall both
ntpdate and ntp and simply run

systemctl enable systemd-timesyncd.service
systemctl start systemd-timesyncd.service

The default NTP servers are configured in
/etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf. If you want to use your own, you can change
the NTP= setting.
See also man timesynd.conf.

systemd-timesyncd works so well, that we decided to enable it by default
for stretch.

Regards,
Michael
