The Paris Saint-Germain striker has been in lethal form this season scoring nine times in seven league games for les Parisiens.
And the German skipper is conscious of the fact this will be their toughest match yet.
"Sweden are dangerous opponents, maybe the strongest team [that we will face in the group]," the Bayern Munich defender told today's press conference.
"They are well organised in defence, and in Ibrahimovic they have a complete striker who can be very dangerous."
Lahm also welcomed Bastian Schweinsteiger's criticism of the team spirit, encouraging his team-mates to listen to the German midfielder's comments.
"I see Bastian's comments as a positive, we should all listen to what he has to say and question ourselves," said the 28-year-old. "I don't know if the pressure building is to blame, but we all know that nobody is guaranteed to win titles.
"It doesn't matter how many times we reach semi-finals, or the final, in every tournament there will be four or five teams that are going to be difficult to beat."
